◆ SetMultiplePositions() [1/2]

AKSOUNDENGINE_API AKRESULT AK::SoundEngine::SetMultiplePositions ( AkGameObjectID  in_GameObjectID,
const AkChannelEmitter in_pPositions,
AkUInt16  in_NumPositions,
MultiPositionType  in_eMultiPositionType = MultiPositionType_MultiDirections,
AkSetPositionFlags  in_eFlags = AkSetPositionFlags_Default 
)

Sets multiple positions to a single game object, with flexible assignment of input channels. Setting multiple positions on a single game object is a way to simulate multiple emission sources while using the resources of only one voice. This can be used to simulate wall openings, area sounds, or multiple objects emitting the same sound in the same area.

Note: Calling AK::SoundEngine::SetMultiplePositions() with only one position is the same as calling AK::SoundEngine::SetPosition()
Returns
  • AK_Success when successful
  • AK_CommandTooLarge if the number of positions is too large for the command queue. Reduce the number of positions.
  • AK_InvalidParameter if parameters are not valid.
