idMusicEntity

Music Entities are used to play music in the level.

Usage

entity {
	entityDef sound_sound_musicentity_1 {
	inherit = "sound/musicentity";
	class = "idMusicEntity";
	expandInheritance = false;
	poolCount = 0;
	poolGranularity = 2;
	networkReplicated = false;
	disableAIPooling = false;
	edit = {
		spawnPosition = {
			x = 1;
			y = 1;
			z = 1;
		}
		initialState = "music_ghost_states/main_ambient"; // music state when level first loads
		initialSwitchGroup = "music_ghost_switch";
		initialSwitchState = "intro_music"; // level music
	}
}
}

> This Music Entity will play ambient music from Hell on Earth.


Not all Music Entities are structured the exact same way.
The music for Super Gore Nest, Mars Core, and the Hub have their usage shown below:

entity {
	entityDef sound_sound_musicentity_2 {
	inherit = "sound/musicentity";
	class = "idMusicEntity";
	expandInheritance = false;
	poolCount = 0;
	poolGranularity = 2;
	networkReplicated = false;
	disableAIPooling = false;
	edit = {
		spawnPosition = {
			x = 1;
			y = 1;
			z = 1;
		}
		initialState = "music_ghost_states/main_ambient"; // music state when level first loads
		initialSwitchGroup = "music_ghost_switch";
		initialSwitchState = "supergorenest_music"; // level music
		secondarySwitchGroup = "supergorenest_music"; // should be the same as above
		initialSecondarySwitchState = "sgn_combat_suite_1"; // music variant
	}
}
}

> This Music Entity will play ambient music from Super Gore Nest's first music variation.

Notes:

The .entities file will play the bottom-most Music Entity when loading the level.
Use the setMusicState Event Call to shift the music to its ghost states (ambient, light, heavy, etc).
You can activate different music in the same level through activateTarget.
