BMS Hive Hand buzzing sound fix

Fixes the buzzing sound of the Hive Hand's projectiles.

"weapon_hivehand.Buzz"
{
	"channel"	"CHAN_WEAPON"
	"volume"	"1"
	"soundlevel"	"SNDLVL_70dB"
	"wave"		"^weapons/hivehand/buzz.wav"
}

A video preview of what this fix will accomplish:

What you have to do to get this fix to work is to navigate to:

sourcemods\BMS\scripts\game sounds weapons.txt

Open the script and search for the keyword "buzz". You'll find the same block of code you see above. Well allmost the same, there is one minor difference. You have to add a caret-symbol (^) infront of the sound path and save the changes to the script. See the code above as reference. That's it. Enjoy. ;)

    Pros:

    • wow I never heard about ^ simbol doing anyhing in hl2 scripts. What function does it have ? like It makes line a priority line?

    this symbol tells the engine that the sound can be also used as distant sound effect. the source engine explosion sounds are a good example. you will her the left side of the sound when you are close to the explosion and the right side when you are far away. this would work with every stereo sound as long as you add the ^. since the buzzing sound only has the buzz on the left ear and was intended to go completely silent once the projectiles are far away you will hear the buzzing only on the left ear. it won't even change in volume regardless of how far the projectile is away. the fix changes all that. this fix can also be applyed to all sounds that sound way different on the left and right ear, because that usually happens when ppl forgot to add this little symbol into the script.
