Hinge having Klang noises regardless of settings.

Dwadeye shared this bug ago

Need More Information

Hello sorry to bother, I have issues with hinges having extremely loud Klang noises regardless of settings.

To put some perspective I am using multiple hinge blocks on a small grid to give it a unique look, but this issue is happening regardless of the block settings, placement, if it has something attached or if its on or off.

Mainly the moment you move the ship and turn using the gyros that is when the sound is being heard as a very loud bang followed by multiple ones. I can understand that to happen if we have blocks attached on the hinge, or nearby ones but this sound is happening even if the hinge is placed away from any block, and has nothing on it.

More or less I have tried to tweak the settings like:

- Toggling Share inertia tensor

- Toggling Hinge lock

- Having timers to also turn of the hinge when it reaches the desired position

- Playing with the Torque and braking torque values

- Trying different Velocity values for both angles

- Setting up different degrees and not using the hard -90 or +90. I used stuff like 89 or such.

- Having the block on or off with set inertia and hinge lock.

No amount of testing has lead to any results, this noise is hearing no matter what I am doing with the block or if it's used or not. Is this a bug?

Hello Engineer,

Thank you for your detailed report and for sharing the steps you’ve already tried. To help us investigate further, could you please be so kind as to:

Share the affected blueprint where you are experiencing the issue:
You can access your blueprints files by typing %appdata% into your Windows search bar and you will be redirected to the hidden Roaming folder. After that just follow: \Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Blueprints. Select the correct folder where your blueprint is saved (local or cloud), zip the file and attach it here
Provide a video showing the steps you are taking and the outcome, including when the banging sound occurs.

Additionally, we would like to understand the impact of this issue more clearly:

Does this problem prevent you from general gameplay, or does it only occur under specific settings or when using a particular type of build?
Are you using any mods? If so, could you please confirm whether this issue also occurs in an unmodded world?

Your input will be invaluable in helping us diagnose and address the issue effectively.

Thank you for your support and assistance!

Kind Regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Hello thank you for the reply, sure it would be my pleasure.

I have attached the blueprint with the hinge on.
For the video I have a hard time uploading are there any limitations in terms of format or storage?
As for the second inquiry
So far the issue does not prevent gameplay, but is severely irritating to be around. The video has just 1 hinge but the more you add the louder everything gets. It is happening regardless of any settings, ( from audio in the world to the block individual settings ) and the only way to diminish it is to reduce the audio sounds to 0.
The original world had mods for building such as build vision, in the video that I sent the world is vanilla with no mods enabled.
