Has the maximum # of simultaneous sounds been increased?

I'm not sure, but most likely not, as we can't do much with the sound API (miles). But one of the coders could give you a more accurate answer.

that can be more of a problem opening it up, as allowing more sound spam. Its bad enough as it is.

Well usually a sound plays and that kills the continuous sound of the rain or something like that, which is pretty annoying if you ask me.

If you're referring to radio sound spam, that's different. Those are limited anyways.

There's not much you can do to intentionally sound spam outside of highly modded servers, so yeah...

Give me an easy way to reproduce and test this, and I'll have a look. I can't promise anything though; audio is one of the parts we know little about and have hardly touched so far.

It would probably be pretty hard to reproduce without some sort of script/something, which plays a lot of sounds as you normally need quite a few players ingame for the sounds to go missing..

Make a shot gun preset with a priority of 0.7 and then make it really loud, that will override the rain sound on every shot I do believe.
If it doesn't just give it a priority of 1.0, that kills rain sound for sure, and the sound of the rain falling will never start back up.

Jerad2142 is right on the $, that's exactly the problem which needs to be fixed. Seriously Ren has a sound limit of 8 (I'm not kidding)
