the little things <3

Edit : the assembling machine 3 is too loud : if you walk among different machines including assm tier 1 & 2, furnaces, chem plants, etc... you'll notice that the assm3 sound crushes everything else. Either because of the volume, or because of the distinct "hiss" it makes.

i have to agree the assembly machine 3 (yellow) is too loud compared to the rest of the entities in my base, the assembly machine 2 (blue) is also a tad loud, while assembly machine 1 (grey) is almost inaudible. suggest turning up the assembly 1 a slight bit, down assembly 2 a slight bit and turning assembly 3 down to where is is almost the same as assembly 2. it can be a slight bit louder, but if you are basing the sound volume on how fast they are. they should get louder when effected by modules, or quieter as the case may be with effies. if however that is not the case then the sounds of previous versions had a good balance imo.

Yeah the hiss, or humm I would describe it, is extremely annoying.

This should be removed completely.

Nice! Now it seems to be worth using

The "deconstruct bricks" sound also seems to have changed in this version. Now it sounds like 2 sounds were played at once : the normal deconstruction sound + the brick/rock deconstruction sound. It's not a bug because the "deconstruct-bricks.ogg" file sounds like this, so it seems to be intended.

I'm not too fond of this, because it gives a "plastic toy" feel to the entities. To see what I mean, mine a furnace or a rock. Don't you like the previous stone-only sound ?
