Lori's post does raise an interesting point about the building helper though. I've just had a tinker with it in buildings I'm not particularly familiar with yet on map 2, and with the current sounds being so subtle, I'm not surprised that she's not picking up on them.
Kai, any mileage in the idea of updating In.wav and Out.wav to something less subtle? I've done no research at all to support this, but would guess that most of the people using the building helper are going to be new players, so something easier to distinguish from background ambience and zombie footsteps in the distance would probably be a big help to them.
