I really don't get this alarm we have in our backpack....

[Astro]

Now it's beeping faster and it's yellow with the number 84 but I cant' see anything around me, and it never gets to 100, no matter where I go. :(

That's a stardust exposure warning. The higher it goes the larger the impact it has on your sanity/health. The area you're in is polluted and your resistance is lacking.

[Astro]

oh dang I thought it was warning me of a chest or something. Good to know.

how do you make it stop. I'm about to uninstall the game, this sort of incessant beeping noise gives me anxiety.

It's just a part of the game, it's to warn you about stardust pollution. There's no way to turn it off other than not being in an a polluted area.

The most annoying is the xp sound, it's basically a rusty squeaking noise. My volume is really really low

[NijimaXL]

Also press Q there could be a hiding mimic

[Astro]

Q snaps fingers, dont' know what that has to do with the annoying sounds

The sanity warning is making me lose my sanity.

I believe what they said sounded simple but ill tell u. Sometimes the stardust warnings a mimic hiding so u press Q to reveal the mimic which will drop a chest when killed. The way to tell its a mimic is on your cradle the top right of it is a circle. The circle will start flashing yellow as it gets more intense your closer to the mimic and then press Q to reveal the mimic

[Astro]

So I see the flashing but for me it's white for the mimic chest, but some times I have seen it yellow for something else but forgot what it was, does any of you know when it flashed yellow?

Just wait until you take a perk that asked you to run your mining operation in a zone with pollution. Boy oh boy.

Doesn't get more stupid than that. Who makes decisions to have a Geiger counter that cannot be muted.
