The Limit property sets the maximum number of concurrent Event playbacks for the same Event. When a Post Event command is received by the Sound Engine, the command will be discarded if the number of concurrent Events for this Event is reached.

	Note
	Setting a value of 0 instances (displayed as Infinite in the Event Editor) disables the Limit property.

The Cooldown Time property limits the rate, in seconds, at which Post Event commands are accepted by the Sound Engine. When a Post Event command is accepted and processed by the Sound Engine, other Post Event commands for the same Event will be discarded for the duration of the Cooldown Time property.

	Note
	Setting a time value of 0 seconds disables the Cooldown Time property.

The Scope property specifies the extent to which the Event Limiting properties are applied to objects within the game. There are two possible values:

	Note
	If both the Limit and the Cooldown Time properties are disabled, the Event Limiting Scope property is also disabled.

Example: An Event has the following Event Limiting properties:

For this example event, there may be concurrent instances of the Event, but the Event Limiting will only allow one instance of the Event per Game Object, because of the Limit property in combination with Scope property. The Cooldown Time property is not applied, as it is disabled by being set to 0 seconds.
