This is sort of odd, never noticed such a background sound?

For me starmade is "silent" except core engine, shooting, and "click-confirm" things, like placing a block or clicking on a menuitem makes a small sound.

Are you referring to those small click sounds?
Or is there another sound supposed to be played while starmade runs?

It sounds a lot like a static or fuzzy noise to me...

AndyP added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 8:44 PM

Is it by any chance the built in microphone (in case of notebook) that also plays?

Does it end when starmade is quit?
When does it start? Before spawn? while loading?

thakyZ added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 9:08 PM

It seems to be any time..

AndyP added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 10:08 PM

So, it does start the noise when the game starts, or before? (possibly even in launcher?)

thakyZ added a comment.Aug 3 2015, 10:55 PM

Umm seems to be after you join and ends when you leave but not in the launcher.

Zackey_TNT changed the task status from Open to In Queue (Game).

Bug report confirmed

Steps to reproduce:

By unticking the "sound" option in the game the game does not mute at all...

By changing the volume levels of the game you get the sound affect that is played when next to a ship core regardless of what you are doing and where you are

Changing the volume levels more yield interesting results sometimes it will mute others it will continue however the first time it mutes is the last time you have sound until you relaunch the game.

Zackey_TNT triaged this task as Low priority.Aug 19 2015, 7:53 AM

Assigning to low as this is a very low priority bug report and workaround possible by simply setting the volume from the launcher/ windows mixer
