Although this is pretty minor, something I've noticed, since adding sound sources to my route lately, any continuous sound glitches. I have rushing mountain stream sounds that run seamlessly in MSTS, but on ORTS, they run for a few seconds, then completely stop for 2-4 seconds, randomly, then start again. Sounds rather like a steam loco safety valve instead of running water! Same thing is happening with machinery sounds in my mill, they don't run continuously, looping as they should.

Needless to say, this is pretty low priority!

At least the sms and wav files would need to be made available, for this to test. Could you please attach them?

It's quite unappropriate and also unnecessarily CPU consuming that a continuous sound, like a mountain stream should be, is triggered by random triggers. I would suggest you try with this modified .sms file

Thanks, that's much better. I'm not surprised that it was done wrong, I did this sms back around 2002, when sounds were still a mystery! I never thought to look at it, since it has worked fine in MSTS, and I haven't kept up very well with sound discoveries.
