I definitely don't remember the old noise being loud. But who knows maybe I just drowned it out after all these years

Likely because it's the same ping you hear when you examine things, so you brain just kind of muted it after all that time.

Was it? I really don't remember it being that loud. Maybe I did just drown it out after all.

Custom clients probably always muted it, now that the clients got redone it's a missing feature.

The client I used was built from the default so the original will have been there. I just don't remember it being that loud ping the inspect does at all. I seem to remember it being a way quieter charm noise. but who knows

It's not at all that same ping.

It certainly wasn't quiet. I wonder if perhaps you had some sort of replacement for it in a custom client or something that was overridden by me making a new resource, or something like that.

Yeah that's the sound I remember, but I don't remember it being loud relative to the rest of the game. Either way thanks for posting so I can revert the new one :D

Ah, yes, I do stand corrected. That does sound familiar.
