Suggestion /playlocalsound Range Indicator

[Revanox]

Suggestion: Add the purple sphere/extra command where you are able to see the range of your sound / maybe define falloff percentage.

Why it would be worth adding: Extreme QoL, prevents sounds to be heard serverwide or by the wrong people

This isn't really feasible given that the source engine doesn't have a way to provide audio levels from a specific location, unless I am missing something

Isn't that what /playlocalsound already does?

I think op Is just asking for the local event indicator to be added to the command so we can see the approximate radius

I think the easiest method is we measure the distance of 3 playlocalsounds, get the average distance and then it calculates said "depicted radius" itself, so its just an indicator

But even then, there isn't a way to know if a player heard the sound, or at what volume, or at what range is stops
