Option - Visual filter to highlight noisy objects. Turn it on, look for the noisemaker.

Some indication ideas - objects flicker brightly when audio is active, red target blinks and shrinks over them, little arrows point at the thing.

Something to help locate the lost cocktail tumbler with ice that someone dropped in the hedge. CLANK! count to ten, CLANK! Count to ten, CLANK! 1 2 3 4.... CLANK!

View > Object Beacons indicates scripted, physical, or sound-emitting objects as red, orange and yellow, respectively.

This may be un-needed, but would be cool to see, is if we could turn on Sound-Vibrations in debug. Then you could see from where sounds are emiting by seeing the "vibe" emitting and where the sound tapers off (the vibe stops).

Might help with finding the distance of sounds too.

Ah...

Wow. I could hug you for that. Perhaps this means I can track down offending noise-making thumps in Lusk that have been driving me crazy. I didn't realize it revealed things like scripts and noise-- is it always yellow, or only when emitting the sound?

Looks like it stays yellow.

No, the object beacon appears at the coordinates of every noise, but it disappears several seconds after the sound stops playing.
