List of Things That Need Sound Effects: LTTNSE
Ok, so in playing this game I have realized a large number of things surprisingly lack any kind of sound feedback, it's just hard to come up with them off the top of my head. So, I created this thread to post things that need sounds because adding sounds is an easy way to boost my commit ranking on Github, and I need muh internet points.
Sleepers
Should have a sound for opening and closing, and mabye port the computer console sounds for the interface. Mabye add some cool ambience to people in the sleepers.
Cryo Pods
Need Opening and closing sounds, mabye more
Exosuits
it would be cool if they had like an AI voice tell you if your mech is being damaged or something
Research goggles and engineering scanners
should have little sounds for enabling and disabling them
Hardhat lights and hardsuit lights
need toggle noises
Transit tube
should have a noise for opening and closing
vending machines
should have noises when they vend things, possibly depending on what is being vended
and more, if i think of any or anyone suggests some.

While noises are cool in general don't you think adding too many will cause saturation

of course, I think adding footsteps and stuff would be a bad idea for that reason. I generally don't want to add prolonged sounds, just short ones for some feedback on things that really should have them.D&B wrote:While noises are cool in general don't you think adding too many will cause saturation

All of these are fine, as this is nothing compared to (WARNING! STRAW-MAN APPROACHING) some places that have constant footstep sounds for Sec, a loud grumble from the station's engine and such. But, for things that do not happen constantly and are in reaction to player interaction with an object are fantastic IMO. Think along the lines of airlocks and certain computers.

To be honest, part of the reason why I don't want to add longer sounds is just because our sound manager is crap. Basically, we have no way of modifying a sound as it plays, for example if you hear a sound to your right and then run so that the sound source is on your left, you will still hear the sound out of your right ear. This same thing effects volume falloff as well.
but yeah, i agree too many constantly-playing sounds is a bad thing.

You could probably have a click for hard hat lights and such.
Cryo pods and sleepers need a soft whooshing of air.
Vending machine you could use a generic vendor dispense noise.
Exosuits should have a voice clip that informs the operator of critically important things only. Like if there's a technical fault that needs correcting or if it hits a low health/power threshold.

Do you guys just not hear the ALL SYSTEMS, NOMINAL ai sound clip when entering mechs or what? It only plays if there's no internal_damage, if you hear it you're golden if you don't hear it the mech is fucked in some way.

There should be a sound when you switch fire modes for a energy weapon.

These all sound really good, but I'm going to postpone adding anything until after I'm done with my organ refactor PR.
