Details:
In unit animations WML, it seems that [foobar_frame] frames (at least those
having a lone sound= attribute and no image= attribute) are playing at the
animation's base start_time, instead of using the specified foobar_start_time
timing.
Here's a UMC example of the syntax used to reproduce:
http://pastebin.com/wkcJnQhu
In mainline, the Saurian Ambusher's unique ranged attack animation makes use
of the ATTACK_ANIM_DIRECTIONAL_9_FRAME macro, defined in
data/core/macros/animation-utils2.cfg, which is affected by the same issue. As
a result, the Ambusher's thrown spear sound is heard at the start of the
animation (start_time=-450), instead of later (sound_start_time=-100).
I suspect the macro was written by someone who knew what they were doing
(Jetrel?) and probably tested before committing, so it's possible this worked
at some point during 1.9.x and later broke because of some other change. Or
perhaps it never worked (in such case, I'd like to know what needs to be
corrected in the WML).
This issue might be difficult to notice at normal speed, so select an
acceleration factor below 1.0x in Preferences before testing.
