I know of the following BFS functions:
. . BFS.VoiceBotActions.PlayRandomSound

Is there a way to have Voicebot play a system beep/tone?<br/>
I know of the following BFS functions:<br/>
. . BFS.VoiceBotActions.PlayRandomSound<br/>
. . BFS.VoiceBotActions.PlaySound<br/>
. . BFS.Audio.PlayFile<br/>
. . BFS.Audio.PlayWAV<br/>
<br/>
But all of the above require providing an actual sound file as an argument.<br/>
I don't want the functionality of the macro to be dependent on whether the user has a file at the specified location, or such, I just want to play a system 'beep', also being able to specify the frequency and duration as arguments would be great.<br/>
<br/>
Similar to Auto-IT's 'Beep' function:<br/>
