To make Dromed recognize a new stimulus it's sufficient to go to game mode once.

Sorry for the necro. I'm not sure if this is a related issue.
my VOTraps seem to be alternating between schemas. For example, I'm trying to get one to go "Hm..." when Garrett reads a plaque, so I used a SoundDescription link from the VOTrap to garhmmm (-841). But half the time, he say's "Hm..." and the other half he says "Uh Oh. Time to get the goods and get out of here while I still can."
I'm at a complete loss. I'm not using any custom schemas, so it shouldn't be any sort of gamesys issue. It's especially odd [to me] that it plays the right thing half the time. It's not just consistently playing the wrong .wav. Any thoughts?
I'm using Thief 2 v1.26 with the latest DromEd toolkit.

This is the schema enry (Garett.SCH). gar1103 is the wav you're talking about.
//WRONG WARD IN MISS11
schema garhmmm
archetype PLYR_EFFORT
garhmmm gar1103
env_tag (Event Reject) (Operation Keyfit) (WardType AirWard EarthWard FireWard WaterWard)

Sorry, but I don't follow. Does that mean I should be SoundDescription linking to a different target? gar1103 comes up as invalid.

That means, the schema garhmmm has 2 different entries, garhmmm and gar1103. garhmmm will be played when a a reject even occurs (key/tool don't work).
If you want to use the garhmmm.wav only in a sound trap, you better copy it to snd/sfx
Renamed it to whatever you want, for example "garhm"
Write a new schema, a simple one
like this
//new garhm
schema garhm
archetype AMB_MISC
volume -500
garhm
Reload schemas and link to garhm.

In other words, with multiple sound files listed int he schema, it will randomly pick between them. If you need to insure it's only a single sound, you need a custom version of the schema with only the file you want to play listed, then reload_schemas and use the custom schema name. You can't link to individual sound filenames, only to schemas.
