Allows you to play two BGS tracks simultaneously to blend ambiences, like birds chirping & the sound of a nearby waterfall without much hassle!

◆ Overview
Plugin name: SDE_BGS2.js
Author: Dustb0
Version: 1.0 for MZ
Release date: 1.0.0 - 20th July 2023

◆ Plugin Description & Usage
Back when I was working on Numina I often ran into a situation where I wanted to mix ambient sounds. Like the chatter of nearby birds and some city noise, or some ominous dungeon ambience with the sound of a sleeping monster. Back then I used to combine two audio files in an audio editor like Audacity, but that's too much of a hassle!

This plugin offers simple Plugin Commands for MZ to play a second BGS track:

You can use the regular Event Commands for the first BGS track. In this example I play some city folk noise as the first track, and some wind over that with the Plugin Commands:

There are also commands to stop and fade out BGS #2. This allows you to create even more immersive ambiences without much hassle!

◆ Compatibility
Should be compatible with most scripts.
An area of concern might be custom battle systems, because the BGS #2 is paused at the start of battle and resumed at the end, just like the first BGS track.
