Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2025-01-04
Features:
- Now allows much finer control of sound volume with an additional prefix. As an example,
"i50:accumulator" reduces idle sound volume to 50%, overriding the default volume factor.
Changes:
- Volume Factor: Now uses an integer percentage value (0-100).
- Mod now works on the "sound_accents" property as well (relevant to Space Age).
Note: Still won't work for most sounds of the agricultural tower and asteroid collector.
Info:
- Updated descriptions.
Internal:
- Overhauled code.
Bugfixes:
- Likely fixed some issues with the code.
Version: 1.0.0
Date: 2024-12-14
