Base Volume Control

Volume and hearing range sliders for the sounds that never stop at your base. Turn down the shield generator hum, quiet a row of smelters or make the portals audible only up close, and keep the rest of the game as loud as before.

Features

• A volume slider (0–100%) and a hearing range slider (10–100%) for each kind of noisy building
• One slider for all buildings at once, on top of the separate ones
• A hotkey (Scroll Lock by default) that silences every building sound and brings it back
• Its own window in the pause menu, built from the game's own sliders and buttons
• You hear every change right away; Save, Cancel and Reset work like the game's own settings
• Pointing at a row explains what it controls
• The shield generator hum is muted by default, hits on the dome still play
• In 8 languages, with building names taken from the game itself (see below)
• Client-side only: install it just for yourself, the server and other players don't need it
• Light on performance: nothing runs every frame except the hotkey check

How to use

Press Esc in game and click Building sounds under Settings. A window in the game's own style opens with a volume and a hearing range slider for every kind of building, grouped into protection, travel, production, farm and kitchen, fire and light, and everything else. Point at a row to see what it controls.

You hear every change right away. Save keeps your changes, Cancel or Esc puts everything back as it was, and Reset brings back the defaults. The window tells you when there are unsaved changes.

The settings are kept in BepInEx/config/BaseVolumeControl.cfg, which you can also edit by hand.

Buildings

• Volume: how loud it is. 0% is silent, 100% is the normal game volume.
• Range: how far away it can be heard. 100% is the normal distance, less means you only hear it up close.

Languages

The window follows the language you picked in the game.

Single buildings such as the smelter or the windmill use the game's own name for them, so they match what you see in game in every one of its languages.

Configuration

General

Each building has its own section with two settings:

Known issues

• Only buildings are affected. Creatures, weather, music and your own actions keep their usual volume.
• The window opens from the pause menu in a world, not from the main menu.
• Settings from version 1.0.0 are not carried over. Set them again after updating.

По-русски

Ползунки громкости и дальности слышимости для звуков базы, которые не замолкают: гул защитного купола, обереги, порталы, плавильни, печи, кузницы, мельницы, ульи, котлы, костры и факелы. Есть общий ползунок для всех построек и клавиша Scroll Lock, которая глушит всю базу разом.

Нажмите Esc в игре и выберите Звуки построек под кнопкой «Настройки»: откроется окно в стиле игры. Постройки разложены по группам, а при наведении на строку внизу окна появляется подсказка. Изменения слышно сразу: «Сохранить» запоминает их, «Отмена» или Esc возвращает как было, «Сбросить» — значения по умолчанию. Окно на языке игры. Мод клиентский, на сервер его ставить не нужно.
