Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
Most certainly the "can't do" sound that gets played when a unit gets stuck for example. You can't really do anything about - BA devs didn't decide to fix that yet although you're not the first who dislikes this (at least I don't remember seeing this on the changelog)... 

Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
I dont know how units can stuck , they overlap each other?
Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
"Get stuck" refers to not being able to do something they were told to do.
Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
go into fps mode and you can usually get units unstuck..
also when you set a waypoint for your factory and get heaps of units crowded there, it will do the bumbum sound because they cant reach the location you set..

Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
It also happens a lot if you set many units to guard a single unit.
Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
It happens 1 of 3 ways.
1. You have a unit stuck somewhere, either in another unit or the unit is too stupid to move around terrain and gets stuck.
2. You have a Combat unit guarding a Construction unit, when the CON unit starts an action that is not in the Combat unit's list of commands, he freaks out with that sound.
3. You have a single move rally point for your factory, and there are too many units trying to move there but are blocked by other units.

IMO this is a bug.MR.D wrote: 2. You have a Combat unit guarding a Construction unit, when the CON unit starts an action that is not in the Combat unit's list of commands, he freaks out with that sound.
Re: Non-stop DRUMS!
I found this annoying too. Instead of destroying your units, try to do this. Push ctrl-a, then hit stop. I think the 's' key.hkwh wrote:when i was playing BA mod last game, keep hearing drum sounds at high freqeuncies "bumbumbum bumbumbum" sounds like a background muisc , never stop, noisy and annoying.What the hell is it, cant stop it until i destroy all my units.....
