Noisy Items in 2.0
Posted: Wed Oct 23, 2024 2:17 am
Am I the only one who doesn't like all the noises items make when you handle them in your inventory?
I guess the concept was good, but I wish they had stopped at like different sounds for wood/metal/stone objects. Because honestly I feel they got a bit silly with it, power poles crackle, inserters whir, train signals chime... none of that should be happening in my inventory. But I'm not trying to nitpick realism, it's more that I feel the excessive variety of sounds makes for worse audio feedback on what you're doing. When I say shift-click an item into a chest, I like hearing a sound that confirms it worked, and it communicates that more clearly if it's more or less the same sound every time.
