Summary0004137: Add some sound for gaining experience and leveling up
DescriptionSince I like to have sound cues for everything, it might be nice to have a subtle sound that plays whenever you gain XP. Since it's not something that happens constantly, after all. Sounds attach to that mental area that says 'I just did something good in the game'. At the very least, leveling up could use some sounds. And probably some fireworks and other fanfare. Right now if you're not paying attention to the log, you could miss it entirely!

Leveling up already has a quite cool sound. But gaining EXP could use one, too.

Odd, I don't think I recall hearing it. I just went and looked in the sound directory, and it is there, and I agree it is pretty cool. I wonder if it's not playing or not playing loud enough or if I am just oblivious. I'll have to check next time I level.

It's one of the louder sounds for me, but maybe there's enough going on audio-wise when you typically hear it that you're not noticing it.

I just gained a level (and was paying attention to see if I could hear any sound when I did), and I heard nothing out of the ordinary. Just the normal background music. I dug it up in the Sounds folder (I assume it's CivilizationLevelUp.ogg) and played it in a normal music player, and I've never heard that sound as far as I can recall.

Nor do I hear CraftingRecipeLearned.ogg when learning new spellgem recipies, if that could be connected.

In .505 the level up sound is now playing for me, so whatever that was, it's fixed. Thanks!

I still didn't hear anything going from level 1 to level 2...

Hmm. I was going from 6 to 7, I think. I don't know if that has any effect but it's something to test.

Edit: Going from 7 to 8 and the sound did not play this time. In .508 this time.

I'll get a sound going for EXP. Does the leveling sound work yet?

I get a sound for picking up the experience containers, but nothing for gaining a level.

I added experience.ogg in the sound folder as well.

I get the level up sound when building wind shelters, but not when I kill a boss. All I hear is *zap* *smash* and a music change if I'm indoors.

Only so many sound effects can play per second, so depending on how many sound effects are playing in a given instant, some of them won't play.
