I figured it out for anyone wondering or having the same issue this is what i did.
You have to run the game first. Then when you are at the menu screen you click the mods option or settings it has the picture of a star on a stick lol
Then it brings up the mod selection screen. Tick the dev mode option. Restart game.
At the menu once again hit the mod option and now you should see the enabled check marked under dev mode. enjoy :)

Indeed this mod is in that specified directory, the sound is still there, i have subs and resubed over 10 times waiting hours, restarted the game numerous times lol I guess ill just have to live with it and mute ambient sound.

@Broken AI It is working, just checked on version 137.14.11. You should have mod in this directory: [steam install directory]\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\979120\1990205965

Is this still working? I subscribed, unsubscribed and all that jumbo, also waited 5 minutes, tried again. restarted pc. Do i need to manually put this file somewhere?

As suggested below, i had to unsub and resub to make it work.

thanks without this mod i would have to mute the game completely!

can you supress the "bot is cursing" loop?

Make the game bug for me

does not work for me

This mod didn't work for me initially. I did as stated "unsub then resub", and it worked properly. This solution may work for others having the same issue. Thanks to Volk0s for making this.

@KillerPretzel,

Thanks a bunch! Couldn't be more clear.

And thanks @Volk0s for making the mod in the first place!

@MangoNacre

It should be mentioned though, that if Volk0s releases an update to his mod, this file is very likely to be overwritten.

Also, if you have multiple steam-library folders on your computer, I am not sure where the workshop items will be stored. In this case, you may have a harder time locating the correct folder. It might be easier to use your OS's search function to locate the "MuteStuck.lua" file.

All credit to this goes to Volk0s, of course. I merely had a stab at the resource files and was lucky enough to find the correct sound files. Based on his work, I managed to put some more lines into the code, and it actually worked...

@MangoNacre

If you add some additional lines to this function, you can mute the various sounds in the game.

Mine looks like this:

function BeforeLoad()
print("Stuck sound mute")
ModSound.ChangeVolume("WorkerStuck", 0)
ModSound.ChangeVolume("WorkerNoTool", 0)
ModSound.ChangeVolume("WorkerNoTool2", 0)
end

@MangoNacre

In your Steam library folder there is a workshop folder, which contains all the... well, workshop files.

Contained therein are folders with "IDs", corresponding to the different games and different workshop items.

I don't know if the IDs are the same on every PC. On my machine, Volk0s's Mod is found here:

PATH_TO_STEAM\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\979120\1990205965

You should find a "MuteStuck.lua" file in there. Open it with a texteditor. You will see a "BeforeLoad" function.

@KillerPretzel

The sounds you disabled yourself are the sounds that drive me crazy, too. But I can't figure out anything about how to add those entries to the mod. Can you tell me what folder and file I need to look for?

@JustRight

I searched for "mouse" in the resource files and found some promising entries, "MouseTick" and "MouseCross".

Unfortunatly, neither of them seem to disable the sounds you want. Perhaps the game doesn't allow these to be changed, or maybe they are just named differently.

All I can do is poke at the files with an hex-editor. To go any further, you would need to extract the resource files and look at all the contained sound files within.

This is beyond the scope of my abilities. Sorry, mate.

@Volk0s

Noice! Thanks, mate.

I'm wondering if the sound effect when you mouse over things can be turned off, mine is delayd for some reason and annoys me enought to just mute the sfx altogether.

The next update will add the possibility to change mod values in the menu, so I will make a unique mute mod where player can choose what to mute. I will add your suggestion.

First I thought the mod wasn't working correctly, but it actually mutes a sound that I don't even find that annoying.

When a robot thinks about the next step and does not find something to do, it makes a little "plink" sound. This is what the mod turns off.

I was instead looking for a mod that turns off the "no tool" sound, because that really gets on my nerves.

So I added two more entrys into your lua-file, "WorkerNoTool" and "WorkerNoTool2".

Maybe you could create another mod for those sounds? So we can easily mix and match to our liking...

OK got it. I was unsubscribing and resubbing from steam workshop. Tried it from in-game mods menu, restarted game and it is working now.
Nice Mod I like it :)

Is 'Worker Stuck Sound' that beep? Does not stop that for me.
Tried unsubscribe and resub, wait a little then retry. Define 'wait a little' I waited a couple of minutes but that did not work. Wait 30 mins? Wait 2 hrs?

unsubscribe and resub, wait a little then retry should fix it

Pls help, the sound is still there.

But still: Good job on the mod, this will save a lot of people a lot of headaches

Nah, it is not :P Only the "Better Berries v2" mod has been made by the devs. Since I'm not a dev, my mods are first :D

This is the first mod that has been made on the autonauts workshop by a non-developer. Congrats !
