The pass-sound is the only sound that cannot be
switched off or altered.This is a very unusual assymmetry in the design of the Zillions language.

All other sounds in a Zillions game can be set to any wav file the programmer wants.
Sometimes I would like to suppress the pass-sound,
sometimes I would like to give it another sound.
None of this is possible.

option "silent ? move" applies only to random players and only is able to suppress ALL of the
random player's sounds or none at all;
hence it is not a solution to the above problem.

............

Furthermore, why is there no create-sound?
The new create command is on the same level of
use and importance as the change and capture
commands, which have sounds associated with them.

(The pass-sound is a higher priority, however,
because it is forced upon us).
