◆ bUseObstruction

bool AkSpatialAudioInitSettings::bUseObstruction

Use the Wwise obstruction curve for modeling the effect of diffraction on a sound. Diffraction is only applied to sounds that have the Enable Diffraction and Transmission box checked in the Positioning tab of the Wwise Property Editor. Diffraction can also be applied using the diffraction built-in parameter, mapped to an RTPC (the built-in parameter is populated whether AkSpatialAudioInitSettings::bUseObstruction is true or false). While the obstruction curve is a global setting for all sounds, using it to simulate diffraction is preferred over an RTPC, because it provides greater accuracy when modeling multiple diffraction paths, or a combination of diffraction and transmission paths. This is due to the fact that RTPCs cannot be applied separately to individual sound paths. Only the path with the least amount of diffraction is sent to the RTPC.
