# EXPBG Ambient Death
Authors: M.Pac and K.Edgar | Version 0.1.1

AI soldiers sometimes cry out when they die. When an AI-controlled character dies, there is a configurable chance that one random death scream or groan (33 recordings) plays from the dying soldier for everyone nearby.

- Works automatically: nothing to place, no Game Master module, no mission changes.
- AI only: a character controlled by a player never plays it.
- Real deaths only: unconsciousness, including ACE Medical cardiac arrest, stays silent; a soldier killed outright, shot or blown up while unconscious, or killed by ACE Medical right after the killing blow can cry out, one who bleeds out while unconscious stays silent.
- Works with any faction or unit mod (vanilla, RHS, custom units), with or without ACE. No dependencies besides the base game.
- Server owners set the chance in the server config missionHeader, like ACE settings; without an entry the defaults apply.
