The AirAbsorption property of the Sandbox.Audio.Mixer class determines how much the air absorbs energy from the sound. This property is useful for simulating realistic audio environments where sound energy diminishes over distance due to air absorption.
The AirAbsorption property is a float value that ranges from 0 to 1. A value of 0 means no air absorption, while a value of 1 means maximum air absorption. This property can be adjusted to achieve the desired level of sound attenuation due to air absorption in your audio environment.
// Create a new audio mixer Mixer audioMixer = new Mixer(); // Set the air absorption to a moderate level audioMixer.AirAbsorption = 0.5f; // This will cause the sound to lose energy as it travels through the air // The higher the value, the more the sound is absorbed by the air
