Sound Effects

Story sound effect paths resolve relative to this directory.

Use a sound effect story tag:

#sfx[squeaky-door.ogg]
The old door opens into the dark.

The server parses the tag into a structured StoryTag. The tag is never sent to the client as display text or TTS input.

Supported browser-friendly formats are recommended: .ogg, .mp3, and .wav. Keep files small enough for responsive preload.

Sound effect loudness is controlled by the master volume and sound effects volume sliders in the options menu.

Document third-party source and license information here or next to the file.
