- The only difference with this command and say is during cutscenes (when some camera effect is active). In cutscenes, say3D is 3D, say is not.

- In Arma 2 1.63, the object this command is assigned to must be alive for the sound to broadcast. If the object is killed while the sound is still playing, the sound will stop immediately.
Here is a link to the forum to get around this issue: [1]
I have not tested this in Arma 3 yet. - Posted on March 11, 2017 - 14:43 (UTC)

This command creates sound object "#soundonvehicle" which can be detected with allMissionObjects:
onEachFrame {hintSilent str allMissionObjects "#soundonvehicle"}; [] spawn {sleep 1; player say3D "Alarm"};
