War Horn

This could help RPing if it was improved upon!
The war horn should be able to be heard from far off, and act as an actual alarm. Depending on which way its coming from (You'd also hear it faintly), the side message bar could say "You hear a faint noise from the DIRECTIONHERE"

Possibly to prevent random people from tricking Kingdoms that there is an attack, the war horn would play different tunes depending on your kingdom.
What do you think? Also add any ideas / suggestions you might have.

Good I like it!

Would be a good idea, but hard to script, I would believe. Though it really would be useful. Imagine an army...prepared for an attack, when suddenly, a horn blows, the soldiers grip their swords tighter, and charge towards the sound...suddenly, another horn is blow from behind them, the soldiers turn around, stunned that they fell into such an obvious trap, and then the battle begins, the enemies approach from both sides, and the soldiers fight valiantly, but surprised and caught off guard, they fail to win, the enemy mark their ground, by building a crude landmark, and blow another tune to the other kingdoms, warning them, that what has happened today, could happen to the rest.

Actually, I believe Jagen already made something very much like this...

Maybe instead of a special tune it could be a series of the current sounds in some order.

Yeah, he did tyhm, but they are only bells. Warhorn should be heard from 10 levels or so levels away.

yes, the idea is good, I hope someone enjoyed my mock RP battle post thing

Maybe the sounds for the war horn like the left button you press for war horn could be for like Need Defense!
right Attack!
Down Help!
Up Over Here!

But you can't use the war horn every second make a cap on it, because peopel will just do it continously to have fun and make people come there and see nothing.

Make it so it can only be used when on Kmode, and only Kmode people can hear it.

I made a bell and put one on every kingdom island (on top of a mountain) if someone in the kingdom rings it, the whole island hears it, I just need stefan to give me the rights to add them into the levels directelly
