confirming that Weight does what we thought
(added a section on <BaseTrack2> because it doesn't seem to have been covered anywhere on the wiki; moved the section explaining the .aif suffix to the top level) |

Breaking the main loop of the music into parts allows Oni to more smoothly transition to the ending part when necessary; the amount of time that a track will play cannot be predicted, after all, since players will take varying amounts of time to clear that segment of the level. | Breaking the main loop of the music into parts allows Oni to more smoothly transition to the ending part when necessary; the amount of time that a track will play cannot be predicted, after all, since players will take varying amounts of time to clear that segment of the level. | ||

Note that .grp files have a <Weight> tag under each <Permutation>. As with TRAC's <Weight> field, this can be used to set the relative probability that a music segment will be picked. Each permutation's weight is figured in relation to the total weight of all segments, so if a piece of music has four permutations and the first one has a <Weight> of 30 and the other three have <Weight>s of 10, the first segment has a 50% chance of being played. This feature is effectively unused in Oni's music, as all music OSBDs assign a weight of 10 to all <Permutation>s. | ||
