Less Annoying Orbital Bombardment Sounds

Description

Alternative to the "dirty projectiles scratching through bent rusty railguns" sounds while bombarding planets.

Only replaces 8 bombardment_explosion sounds in the sound/weapons directory with 8 different sounds.
Should be compatible with any mod, any game version and achievements.

"Before" is after the "After" in the sample video if you really need to hear it.


I intentionally kept the rather longer projectile sounds (sounded better), and as a result explosion visuals may not sync up with the audios perfectly.

I really don't care but, if it makes anyone feel better (or worse?); even though we shamelessly ignore the fact that sound can't travel through the space, it still has to travel much slower than the light. So there can be a certain distance in which that particular audio delay can be observed (not space).

So although I still am not fully satisfied, i think besides sounding less annoying, this kinda makes more sense than the original also.



- Credits to zapsplat.com for the "Incoming missile whoosh and hit and explode" sounds
- Tiny edits were done with Audacity
- Stable Diffusion AI & Photoshop helped with the thumbnail
- I guess I'm just the messenger

only just found this now but personally I think the impact sound being slightly later than the explosion makes it way better since, yknow, sound is slower than light

Surprised I haven't seen something like this before, it's a nice change of pace.
