The following script allows for a siren to sound throughout a map when an AI pilot enters the seat of a jet:

(script continuous jetraidalert
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list mj3 "J-pilot" (ai_actors spartanpilot1)) true))
	(sound_looping_start "sound\alarm\raid siren" none 0.5)
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list cb3 "B-driver" (ai_actors elitepilot1)) false))
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list mj3 "J-pilot" (ai_actors spartanpilot1)) false))
	(sound_looping_stop "sound\alarm\raid siren")
)

How does one make the above script work to make the siren loop on a localized building, scenery object, etc.?

i was thinking sound environments but then you wouldn't be able to script it

I want an alert to begin from a sound loop attached to a scenery object in the red base when a blue pilot takes off, and vice-versa.

Okay found this in halo scripting bible:

(sound_looping_start )

So usually after the looping sound you'd put none but i guess you can attach it to an object. Not too sure about a cutscene flag tho

Ok, so the sound looping start command has three parameters:

(sound_looping_start [sound directory] [object] [real])

Instead of putting 'none' as your object, place the name of the object you want the sound to emanate from.

Do it like this:

(script continuous jetraidalert
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list mj3 "J-pilot" (ai_actors spartanpilot1)) true))
	(sound_looping_start "sound\alarm\raid siren" SIRENOBJECT 0.5)
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list cb3 "B-driver" (ai_actors elitepilot1)) false))
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list mj3 "J-pilot" (ai_actors spartanpilot1)) false))
	(sound_looping_stop "sound\alarm\raid siren")
)

The actual script from the map I am working on is as follows:

(script continuous blue_jetraidalert
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list bmj1 "J-pilot" (ai_actors blue_spartanpilot1)) true))
	(sound_looping_start "sound\alarm\nuke_warning" bb 0.5)
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list bmj1 "J-pilot" (ai_actors blue_spartanpilot1)) false))
	(sound_looping_stop "sound\alarm\nuke_warning")
)


(script continuous red_jetraidalert
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list rmj1 "J-pilot" (ai_actors red_spartanpilot1)) true))
	(sound_looping_start "sound\alarm\raid siren" br 0.5)
	(sleep_until (= (vehicle_test_seat_list rmj1 "J-pilot" (ai_actors red_spartanpilot1)) false))
	(sound_looping_stop "sound\alarm\raid siren")
)

Which now works perfectly...Thanks!
