GetSoundscapeFn

This week, I dove into the fun world of Garry’s Mod binary modules. While testing some three-year-old features that Infiltrator will use, I discovered that my Lua-written soundscape getter was unreliable and expensive, so I wanted to improve it. I figured I could do this with a binary module, so I spent all week stumbling through code annotations, source code, and non-existent documentation to make it work. I finally got it to work on Windows but not Linux, where the server will be run, so this adventure’s not over yet!
