VAM ARCHIVE: SoundRefresh v2 (files) (Patreon)

SoundRefresh is a plugin that checks sound files and plays them as soon as they change. This allows you to connect external audio to VAM in a way that just works without needing complex DIY logic built with multiple plugins nor dealing with VAM's audio management which is a bit messy. This works great in particular with text-to-speech. People can just put the audio in a "reply.mp3" file somewhere for example, add this plugin to the Person, and it will automatically speak that audio file whenever that file changes.

CHANGELOG V2

• FIX: prevent error messages appearing while files is locked for writing and vam fails to load it

• NEW: added autoplay toggle, on by default; when it's off the plugin will just recheck and refresh the file in vam, not play it, to allow for custom play (maybe paired with APICheck plugin); checking can be started manually by triggers in this case

• NEW: added queue toggle, allows for files to be queued; can be used with multiple files too by changing the filename from a trigger, like "folder/reply2.wav", "folder/reply3.wav"
