Rework sound-distance curve, add low-pass filter for far away sounds? #164

Closed asumagic closed 11 months ago

Sounds fade off too quickly so out of screen sounds can often not be heard. We could also expose something script-side to adjust this curve especially for modded content, as their need might differ from vanilla.

Unsure if the low-pass filter would be cheap enough to apply to a couple tens or hundreds of sounds at once. An alternative would be to group sounds by distance and shove them into one of N streams that apply the low-pass filter, which reduces by an order of magnitude how often the filter would have to be applied.

Self question: are there subtle reverb filters that would be cheap enough to complement low-pass muffling

Done in next staging build, needs more testing to see if the curve sounds nice
