... yeeeeahhh the title says it all
map example: The shadow experiment, when you walk you can hear footsteps

How do i do it?
I attempted to make one but it failed >_< n this is what i did:

===
Current player brings 0 Terran Marine at rine
===
Center location rine on Terran Marine at anywhere for current player
Play leftfoot.wav
Wait 400ms
Play rightfoot.wav
Wait 400ms
Preserve
===

including hyper triggers >_<

I hear the foot step sound at the beginning of the map, but it doesnt work after that =(

yeah, you could use death count hypers to avoid that, or you could use death count waits.

Most of the time people just combine the sound into 1 wav file, making waits (or counters) completely unnecessary. Any sound-editing program can do that for you.

Atleast your guess of it being completely wrong was wrong.. all that was wrong in it was the waits; besides that, it is exactly how most people would do it.

I'm guessing that there will only be 1 Marine on the entire map? If not then you might need to have more locations being used

Well that's kind of weird... why'd u need left foot and right foot? and the wait 400 ?
It's just one footstep ... if your location is .. i guess 1x1 big .. it should work fine with hyper triggers without the waits...

Oh_Man -- and no consistent easy to use way to then play the audio either

Oh_Man -- where they use third party audioprogram called WWISE which basically makes adding audio extremely difficult

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.
