The Event Editor is where you manage the action Events in your project. Action Events contain actions, such as play, pause all, and stop all except, that have been applied to different sound, music, or motion objects or structures. These Events are integrated into the game engine and are triggered at different points in the game. Each Event can contain several actions. You can further specify particular properties for each action and apply certain conditions.
The following colors are used in the Event Editor to help you identify the status of objects within an Event:
-
White - For objects included in the current platform.
-
Gray - For objects not included in the current platform.
-
Red - For Event actions that are missing an associated object.

Interface Element |
Description |
|
|---|---|---|
|
Name |
The name of the Event. Each Event must have a unique name. |
|
|
Notes |
Any additional information that you want to attach to the Event to further describe it. |
|
|
Event ID |
An identification number associated with the Event. Each Event is assigned a unique number by Wwise. Event IDs can be used instead of Event names in projects where the game engine does not support text strings. |
|
|
Event Actions | ||
|
Opens the Project Explorer-Browser where you can select the object that you want to assign to the selected Event action. |
|
|
Removes the assigned object from the selected Event action. |
|
|
No. |
The number of the Event action. This number defines the order in which the actions are carried out. |
|
(Action Selector) |
Displays a complete list of actions that you can add to the Event. Click the Selector button to display the complete list of actions. |
|
|
PF |
Determines whether an Event action is included in the current platform. If selected, the Event action is included in the current platform. If unselected, the Event action is excluded from the current platform. |
|
|
Actions |
The type of action that will be performed. The type of action selected will define which properties are displayed in the Action Properties section. |
|
|
Objects |
The name of the object to which the action has been applied. When an “Except” type action is selected, the Expand/Collapse Exception List button is added to the Objects column. You must then add the objects that you want excluded from the action. |
|
|
Scope |
The extent to which the action is applied to objects within the game. The scope can be one of two types: Game object - Applies the Event action to the game object that triggered the Event. Global - Applies the Event action to all game objects. For “Except” actions, the scope is defined for the action and each object in the exceptions list. By default, the action's scope is set to Game object, but if one of the object's scope is set to Global, then the action's scope setting is automatically set to Global as well. |
|
|
Notes |
Any additional information or comments that you want to add to the specific Event action. |
|
|
Location in Hierarchy |
The path or location of the selected object within the project hierarchy. This field is read-only. |
|
|
Action Properties |
The properties associated with each Event action. This section is contextual, which means that different properties will be displayed depending on the type of action you select in the Event Actions list. To view descriptions of the various Event action properties, simply click on the appropriate action link in the section below (Event Actions List). |

Type - The type in which the seeking position is expressed. The following values are available: Percent - the seeking position is expressed as a fraction of the sound's total duration. Time - the seeking position is expressed as an absolute value from the beginning of the file, in seconds. Default value: Percent | |||||
|
Seek percent - The seek position expressed as a percentage of the sound's total duration. This duration takes looping into account. For example, seeking to 50% of a sound that loops twice over itself will bring the cursor to the beginning of the second loop. Sounds that loop infinitely are an exception, because their duration is infinite. In such a case, the effective position is computed as if they were not looping, and is then applied by taking looping into account. Consequently, it is impossible to seek after a looping region (in the "outro portion") of an infinitely looping sound. When seeking within a Music Segment, the position is relative to the Entry Cue, and the object's duration is defined by the duration between the Entry and Exit Cues. It is thus impossible to seek before the Entry Cue (Pre-Entry) or after the Exit Cue (Post-Exit). Default value: 0 Default Slider Range: 0 to 100 Input Range: 0 to 100 Units: Percent | |||||
|
Seek time - The seek position expressed as an absolute time value. This duration takes looping into account. For example, seeking to 10 seconds of a 10 second sound that loops twice over itself will bring the cursor to the beginning of the second loop. Likewise, it is impossible to seek after a looping region (in the "outro portion") of an infinitely looping sound. When seeking within a Music Segment, the position is relative to the Entry Cue. It is thus impossible to seek before the Entry Cue (Pre-Entry). However, it is possible to seek after the Exit Cue (Post-Exit) using this option. Default value: 0 Default Slider Range: 0 to 10 Input Range: 0 to 3,600 Units: Seconds | |||||

Seek to nearest marker/cue-the effective seek position will snap to the nearest marker. Markers are embedded into wave files and preserved when they are imported in Wwise. When seeking within Music Segments though, this option will snap the effective position to the nearest Segment Custom Cue, or Segment Entry Cue, as authored in the Segment Editor. The Exit Cue is always ignored. | |||||

Time - The amount of time it takes for the objects to fade up or down to the destination value. If the value specified is higher than the object's current value, then the time value represents a fade up. If the value is lower, then the time value represents a fade down.

![[Tip]](/images/2015.1.9_5624/?source=Help&id=tip.png)
-
In order to create an Event which starts the playback of a Wwise object at a specific location of the (first) sound, add a Play action followed by a Seek action.
-
No volume fading is performed when seeking, thus seeking while a sound is playing may result in a click.
-
Music playlist containers, music switch containers and motion objects do not support seeking.
-
When the sound is a plug-in source, seeking is executed by the plug-in, if it implements it. Currently, only the Silence plug-in supports seeking.
-
Seeking only applies to sounds that are currently playing. You cannot use this action to jump between objects that are part of a continuous sequence.
-
If the seeking position is greater than the length of the sound, it stops playing.
-
Seeking will fail if one of the ancestors of the playing sound is a continuous (random or sequence) container with one of these special transitions:
-
Trigger rate
-
Crossfade (amp)
-
Crossfade (power)
-
Sample-accurate (Seeking will actually work with continuous sequences with sample-accurate transitions only if the sound that is currently playing is the first one of the sequence.)
-
-
Seek time or percentage takes looping (and looping regions) into account (see notes for parameters "Seek percent" and "Seek time").
-
After seeking, playback might be delayed by latency due to streaming. In the case of a Music Segment, this delay is equal to the segment's look-ahead time (see Music Tracks' properties). A segment's look-ahead time is the greatest streaming look-ahead value of all its streaming child tracks.
