My comment was on the talk about adding extra MP message types for sound. I'm not familiar with the sound internals, but sounds created by a MP/AI model should of course be positioned relative to that model. So adding that possibility would be great. > Changing MP to only send properties when the change is a separate, but > worthwhile improvement, I guess, but I don't (again) know enough to > comment for sure.

Using properties would match nicely with the XML sound configs and be analogous to the way animation of MP/AI 3d models are handled. Btw, if you mean the "in-program" chat I'm fairly sure it is done using a MP enable string property.
