Hey, this was actually super helpful, thank you very much. I just spent about an hour with your base making a bunch of performance and mix changes based on your setup. Ultimately they wouldn't have been causing fps issues, but performance on the audio-side is now a bit better thanks to your base. [edit: actually, I shouldn't speak so quickly: it's hard to tell exactly what effect this will have on the average late-game base, but it will certainly be positive -- by how much, I'm not exactly sure yet!]

I wasn't able to reproduce your issue of automation beeps and boops playing even when the overlay isn't open, but I presume that what you're hearing is the mechanical sound of the switch triggering on/off.

To that end, I made it so that those sounds have a smaller fall-off curve, so that in order to hear them at full volume you have to be closer to it. This should help your situation without affecting those who rely on that sound too heavily.

Please feel free to give more feedback!

Thanks again - these changes didn't make it into the next update, but will be in the one after that :)
