sounds

Vars

all_soundsAll valid sound files in the sound directory
channel_listList of all channels as numbers
channel_random_lowlower iteration position - Incremented and looped to get "random" sound channels for normal sounds. The channel at this index is returned when asking for a random channel.
channel_reserve_highhigher reserve position - decremented and incremented to reserve sound channels, anything above this is reserved. The channel at this index is the highest unreserved channel.
random_channels_minAmount of channels to reserve for random usage rather than reservations being allowed to reserve all channels. Also a nice safeguard for when someone screws up.
reserved_channelsAssociative list of all reserved channels associated to their position. "[channel_number]" = index as number
using_channelsAssoc list, "[channel]" = either the datum using it or TRUE for an unsafe-reserved (datumless reservation) channel
using_channels_by_datumAssoc list datum = list(channel1, channel2, ...) for what channels something reserved.

Procs

available_channels_leftHow many channels we have left.
free_channelFrees a channel and updates the datastructure. Private proc.
free_datum_channelsFrees all the channels a datum is using.
free_datumless_channelsFrees all datumless channels
free_sound_channelRemoves a channel from using list.
random_available_channelRandom available channel, returns number
random_available_channel_textRandom available channel, returns text.
reserve_channelReserves a channel and updates the datastructure. Private proc.
reserve_sound_channelReserves a channel for a datum. Automatic cleanup only when the datum is deleted. Returns an integer for channel.
reserve_sound_channel_datumlessNO AUTOMATIC CLEANUP - If you use this, you better manually free it later! Returns an integer for channel.
