[2.1.8] Loading music plays over title music

Post by nighthawk2400 »

This is a super minor issue, but if you have no mods enabled (just Base mod) then the game loads quickly enough that the loading music/sound is still playing when the title music starts and they play over top of each other.

Ideally either the title music would interrupt the loading music, or it would be delayed until the loading music is finished. The title music is really good, it would be nice not to have the start of it ruined.

This is not what sound engineers intended for user to hear, nor what a user expects to hear (hence the report), so this is a bug.

This is not a bug on purely technical part of the road (you tell engine to play a stream - it doesn't crash, and mixes it properly), but the whole path from the intention to what_happens is not covered by just that. The solution would be simply putting loading intro on the same channel as background music with proper crossfade.
