📋 About This Mod
This stops the metallic "bang" sound from playing when small fish and oxygen bubbles (yes, bubbles) impact your submarine. I found these effects especially annoying when my submarine was parked. Stopping overtop of brain coral sounded like an insistent salesman knocking loudly on your cyclops.
What's the same:
Ramming the cyclops into stationary objects will still trigger a "bang" sound effect.
Which large creatures do (or don't) "bang" against the cyclops. It seems reasonable for sharks and such to make loud impacts.
