Minor Features

Added support for volume and speed activity matching for persistent working sounds.



What does this mean?


The volume and/or playback speed can be influenced by entity's activity rate. Activity rate is a general concept telling you how active an entity is (it means ...

Just a little update, I have received a cleaned up version of the track from the composer so both in-game and standalone OST can be updated. It might take a while to actually get it released though. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for the report.
The issue was related to variable music tracks and their threads. The threads could be sleeping when the track was ordered to stop, the game would wait for those threads which could lead to a noticeable stutter.

Similar stutter could occur if you press "Play next" while a ...

Thanks for the report, I must have missed it at the time.
This issue should be fixed since 2.0.16.

If the headphones are the default audio device (and stay default after disconnecting and reconnecting) the audio backend should do its best to resume playing sound through that device.
If you explicitly selected your headphones as the preferred output device in Factorio sound settings it might not ...

It could also be a case of the GPU going into lower power state and then reporting higher utilization percentage even though it doesn't do any additional work, looking at power consumption of the GPU might be a better indicator. But this is also just a wild guess.

Thanks for the report, the issues is now fixed for the next release, 2.0.39.

Thanks for the feedback, here are some responses:

Cyclic notes in vanilla
There are currently no plans to change or add any notes.

Volume controlled by signal from 0 to 100
I was wondering what should the resolution be. SDL audio backend is using 0 to 128 internally, I considered using that ...

Edit: I misunderstood, I thought it was to turn off certain categories of sound effects (like, say, rocket launch). Still, very nice to have.


For adjusting individual sounds I suggest creating/using a mod.
We have a lot of sound categories already.

Edit: FYI, rocket silo sounds are under ...

Fixed for the next release, 2.0.38.

Thanks for the report. I'll fix it once I'm back at work.

Oops, fixed for the next release, 2.0.36. Thanks for the report.

Implemented for the next release, 2.0.36.

Hello,
The standalone soundtrack contains the final versions of the tracks, remixed and remastered. And it sounds like Fulgora 7 - Resonant Frequency is actually quite different.
The in-game versions haven't been updated yet. They will be at some point.

This is addressed for the next release, 2.0.36.
Together with couple of new sounds and adjustments on some other entities.
Thanks for the report.

/sigh Would you expect the mute-programmable-speaker command take the "stop immediately" toggle into account?

Edit: never mind, already did it

So far I've picked up a vague idea (that's more of an assumption) of what each category is and some of the sounds that go into each.

Some of the categories have tooltips trying to explain a bit about which sounds they affect.
If you really want to check a specific sound you can use the "show ...
