Sound Bug

Post by cncr04s »

Well, I think its a bug. I don't think the intention of the dev's is to make someones ear bleed.

So when in a multiplayer game, when in some slow servers(bandwidth or otherwise) and lets say someone joins, it will make the game studder and lag. While an issue to be sure, but what it causes is when I am for example placing down a bunch of belts at this time, it will play the sound of me placing them 0-10 times for each placement as since the server is not keeping up with the command of me placing the belt. These can happen all at once, so the same waveform is amplified by many times resulting in an ear-bleeding short burst of sound.
This needs to be fixed, the sound engine shouldn't play the same sound that many times.

This has been of slight issue in single player as well the whole time I've been playing (2y), only occurs when there are mass placements of items by bots at the same time. (relating to SP) Possibly MP as well. Separate but related.

This doesn't seem like something worth the time to work on.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
