Hey guys, not sure where else to put this, just wanted to point out something that I havent seen in any mods so far. perhaps other people have picked up on it, im not sure
As you increase map zoom(further out), the sounds at ground level decrease their volume according to how much you zoom in and out.
Eg a map with 560 zoom will be hard to hear units at ground level, whereas 200 map zoom the volume will be more audible.
It might be subjective of course, but I personally prefer to hear everything regardless of how far out your map is zoomed.
The fix - audiosettings.ini
Play with these, I cant remember what does what but it works 
;; Fade-out-sounds-which-are-offscreen-when-zoomed parameters ZoomFadeDistanceForMaxEffect = 3000 ; How far off screen do the sounds need to be to get the full fading effect?
