AudioStreamPlayer2D
===================

**Inherits:** :ref:`Node2D<class_Node2D>` **<** :ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Plays positional sound in 2D space.

Description
-----------

Plays audio that dampens with distance from screen center.

See also :ref:`AudioStreamPlayer<class_AudioStreamPlayer>` to play a sound non-positionally.

**Note:** Hiding an ``AudioStreamPlayer2D`` node does not disable its audio output. To temporarily disable an ``AudioStreamPlayer2D``'s audio output, set :ref:`volume_db<class_AudioStreamPlayer2D_property_volume_db>` to a very low value like ``-100`` (which isn't audible to human hearing).

Signals
-------

.. _class_AudioStreamPlayer2D_signal_finished:

- **finished** **(** **)**

Emitted when the audio stops playing.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_AudioStreamPlayer2D_property_area_mask:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **area_mask**

+-----------+----------------------+
| *Default* | ``1``                |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_area_mask(value) |
+-----------+----------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_area_mask()      |
+-----------+----------------------+

Determines which :ref:`Area2D<class_Area2D>` layers affect the sound for reverb and audio bus effects. Areas can be used to redirect :ref:`AudioStream<class_AudioStream>`\ s so that they play in a certain audio bus. An example of how you might use this is making a "water" area so that sounds played in the water are redirected through an audio bus to make them sound like they are being played underwater.

----

.. _class_AudioStreamPlayer2D_property_attenuation:

- :ref:`float<class_float>` **attenuation**

+-----------+------------------------+
| *Default* | ``1.0``                |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Setter*  | set_attenuation(value) |
+-----------+------------------------+
| *Getter*  | get_attenuation()      |
+-----------+------------------------+

Dampens audio over distance with this as an exponent.
