+=== Configuring available sounds ===
 Configuration of soundfiles is done in the XML files. You just have to add the specific attribut to your class tag. The value has to be the filepath relative to the [mediapath]/audio directory.

+=== Make more soundattributes available ===
+Here are some instructions:
+ * Look at the implementaion of the above classes. You should be able to copy a most of the things.
+ * Add a new XMLPort macro to the XMLPort function of the class the sound belongs to(most likely XMLPortLoadOnly), name the function loadFooSound or something similar
+ * Implement the load function, for some examples look at the above classes
+ * Add the needed members to the class (at least one SoundBase pointer)
+ * Add the calls to SondBase::play(bool loop) where you want to have the sound being played
+ * Add the class/sound to the above list and that's it
