SVC_STOPSOUND message
 
How should I use this message? I cannot get it to work.
PHP Code:
message_begin(MSG_ONE, SVC_STOPSOUND, {0, 0, 0}, pid);
write_short(pid);
message_end(); 
According to the doc:
Quote:
SVC_STOPSOUND
Stops an ambient sound.

Name: SVC_STOPSOUND
Structure: short EntityIndex
Am I correct to think that this is server side alternative to "stopsound" console command?

Stop sound will stop all sound currently playing on the client
So depend what you need, it could be bad if you just want to silent 1 entity

And indeed it works. It is how I currently stop ambient sound. I just assumed that this command triggers procedure:
1. Server sends "stopsound" to client
2. Client executes the command telling the server to stop the sound
3. Server stops the sound for the client

And so I decided to optimize the process. Does it make sense or the command need no server to stop the sound? I mean is it fully client side command with no further server communication?

I do not completely understand the message. Ii it supposed to stop the sound that a player hears, or it should stop the sound that the entity produce?

You only stop it when the client enters the server, it will only stop the ambient sound, because the client at that moment will not be playing any other sound

and for this, the ambient sound is independent of each user/client

It immediately stops every sound player hear

Then why does it do nothing when I send it? I can still hear ambient sound on de_train or de_aztec, unlike when I issue stopsound command. You can see the code at the beginning of this thread (pid is player id).

You are getting too complicated for something very simple, just use stopound, the efficiency is minimal and almost irrelevant, just place it once when you enter the server and that's it

As far as I know you cannot use this command on client connect. It works only after spawn and have to be issued every round. Okay, I understand your point. It is not that important. I usually try to improve things if I can.
