Suggestion box for sounds that need correction.
If you found a modded sound effect that generates a noise area that's too big or too small, we can easily fix it. Comment here what are the sounds needing correction and link the corresponding mod and we'll take a look when we can.

OR

If you're comfortable editing XML files, you can do it yourself! Just find a file called Patches_noiseAdjustments.xml, inside Patches on this mod's folder, duplicate one of the patch operations and edit it to target your sound effect.
It should look something like this:

<!--Name of the mod--> <Operation Class="JPTools.PatchOperationFindModById"> <mods> <li>ModID.AsWrittenOnItsAboutfolder</li> </mods> <match Class="PatchOperationSequence"> <success>Always</success> <operations> <li Class="PatchOperationAdd"> <xpath>/Defs/SoundDef[defName="NameOfTheSoundDef"]</xpath> <value> <overrideNoiseVolume>X</overrideNoiseVolume> </value> </li> <!--repeat for other soundDefs that also need correction--> </operations> </match> </Operation>

Then paste that patch here, so we can properly incorporate it! I promise to credit the patch author on the change note. :-)

Even better if you can use GitHub and make a pull request! The file is here[github.com].

Hi, the writing tables from https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2193152410 seem to cause excessive noise due to sharing properties with turrets. I'm terrible with code, I only know that it's linked to turrets via the RIMSqol mod. Thank you!!

Awesome, thank you!

I did notice that in high-noise areas, such as around Windmills, if you have a colonist set to do a job such as harvesting/sowing a field, they can become stuck in a loop of seeking respite from the noise and trying to complete the job. They have t o be manually drafted and removed from the area to break the loop.

One other modded noise issue that may be common/used enough to warrant fixing is the basic windmill from Rimefeller. Currently it doesn't have a noise assignment. I'll try to learn how to implement patches as you described above so I don't spam you with these, especially for more niche mods. Thanks again for your work on this mod, it's really fantastic.

I'm looking into it. There definitely are some corrections to be made. But what do you mean by "basic windmill"? There doesn't seem to be any such thing in Rimfeller!

My mistake, they're actually from Vanilla Factions Expanded: Settlers.

Got it. I added the sound for the Watermill generators to it. I think its a good fit.
On the loop you mention, I wasn't able to reproduce. But I'd ask you to transfer that to the other pinned discussion, where you'll find instructions on how to report issues. Thx!

Washing machines from Bad Hygiene make an amount of sound comparable to a gunshot as long as they're working, which is a bit much!

The various appliances from Replimat produce *massive* amounts of sound when activated.

Hello, is it possible to make a patch for the cursed mods "RJW"? the range of the sound cover all the map!

Thanks!

edit : I did the patch and I pull it, and some other, on your github.

Are you saying that RJW is not compatible with this mod without your patch?

Of course RJW is compatible with this mod, I mean, you'll not get any error or bug if you use them. But, the range of the sound is far too big when your colonist have some fun...
