Revisit sound support #13

Open HunterZ opened 1 year ago

I prototyped sound support way back in the 1990s using a couple of WAV files extracted from Warcraft 1 or 2, and it was pretty fun.

Should revisit cross-platform sound support somehow... I think it would make the game more exciting to play, stream, etc.

One option would be just echoing in-game messages to a log file and having an external app monitor it - this is how Dwarf Fortress sound mods work.

A more sophisticated method would probably be to fire events to a separate thread that reacts by playing sounds.
