I have a Metasounds file that does everything I want from an audio perspective. I have a looping rain sound that randomly triggers thunderclaps, and there are parameters that are random as well (gain/LPF/etc). I decided I wanted to extend this mechanic into lighting and broadcast an event through an interface that a light source could subscribe to to act on. However, I don’t see any way to broadcast an event outside of the metasounds graph.
What is the ‘common’ or battle-tested way to do what I’m thinking of? Make an Actor blueprint that handles the random timing call and rain separately, and broadcast the event from there? When I attach a metasound to my actor BP, I can’t seem to access the Graph anymore. Do I just use the content browser to edit it? I want to make sure I’m doing it correctly. Thanks in advance! Here’s my Graph just as a visual for what I’m doing:
