Spring RTS Engine

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.....

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)...

I dont know how units can stuck , they overlap each other?

"Get stuck" refers to not being able to do something they were told to do.

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..

It also happens a lot if you set many units to guard a single unit.

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.

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.

yeh i was on BA earlier (doing some testing/screenshots) got that stupid drum sound spam and its not even on the lua widget list to disable :/

Because it's not a widget?
