Talking On Phone Should Make Noise Like Loud Sleeper....

[Sasuga]

O

I think talking on the phone should make noise like loud sleepers.

 

(For that matter, I think machines should make noise as well, like the manual generator, possibly pipes with water flowing through them...)

Iirc there was a noise system in the works but never got added. With the dlc-esque updates around the corner (or at least their announcements) it`s possible they`ll consider finishing this system.

I can see certain critters making noises, really high amount of noise causing extra stress even during daytime and even dupes having traits that makes them prefer silence or getting stressed if it`s too silent around.

As much as I love the idea, I'm not sure if that won't add too many calculations to achieve too little. If Klei was able to find a way to do it without FPS drop I'd love it, but I don't think it would have big enough impact on the game to justify it in other case

Yeah that sort of system would warrant a new overlay and sound calculations similar to how radiation penetrates through each material. Then again they could just use a simplified version with each machine producing an aura like area around itself when working which is blocked by any solid tile. That would keep calculations at minimum.

actually when you at in deep sleep then you not hear nothing, the Noice would be need very loud for wake you up. its same like you watch the tv and you get sleep when tv still runs
