Would it be possible for Roblox to add an option to sounds that enables you to choose what the range of the sound would be so that not everyone wherever they may be in the game hears it too. A good reason for this to be added would be so that for example a camp fire could make roaring flame sounds that only those around it can hear.

Yes, It's called volume, maybe reduce it and it won't be heard as easily.

Don't worry I passed 3rd grade. You can use volume, which can be heard better by some at closer ranges than those farther. So, it already kinda exists. If that doesn't work then I'll support, but volume does work.

Cj, Volume does not work if you knew anything about games. A sound that us universally present has a drone regardless of location. Imagine a large game with a bunch of different areas but with different sounds and you can hear them all. This would be a great scripting and building update, Choose how many decibles the sound is and the radius of where it can be heard. This would add many new immersion things to the game. Support all the way.

Well pardon me. I thought there was this game service called Soundscape which allows you to sett a Distance factor in addition to the Doppler Scale. Oh but I'm sorry for doing all of this before I made a post. Forgive me of my sin against man kind.

Support, when I'm building at Ultimate Build I can hear a delete when I'm at the sky and it comes from the baseplate.
