Replaces the vanilla shield and hull hit sounds with more immersive custom ones.

== Overview ==
The author was bored of the uninspired bonks of the vanilla hit sounds and made his own, better ones.

The OXP was peer reviewed by a staggering 2 people. This extensive review proved that it was indeed an improvement.

== Compatibility with BGS and other sound OXPs ==
To make sure compatibility with BGS and other OXPs, make sure to download and install Better Damage Sounds AFTER them. Oolite code makes sure that the last OXP loaded would trump every other before them.

 There has been much discussion on this subject, needless to say!
 == Overview ==
-Fairness was important for [[User:Aegidian|Aegidian]], our first Lead Designer. He wanted a balanced game which would present a fair challenge to the player. So whatever the player could have, the NPCs would get (but with 3 exceptions in his day as laid out below). For example, no [[Laser Cooler]]s (because NPC should have them too, and then a swarm of ships with them would utterly marmalise the player).

For example, no [[Laser Cooler]]s in Oolite (because NPC should have them too, and then a swarm of ships with them would utterly marmalise the player).
-But the ability to massively modify the game led to the rise of ships and weapons which became more and more powerful ([[Ubership]]s and Uberweapons). Of course, the NPCs got them too. And this also happened hand-in-hand with an attempt to make the game harder for the better players who found the vanilla game too easy.

And this also happened hand-in-hand with an attempt to make the game harder for the better players who found the vanilla game too easy.
 And there were the debates over the [[Energy Bomb]] (see below). And also attempts to create insanely unbalanced ships and weapons to show how ridiculous things were getting (''eg''. [[Killit OXP]] & the [[WonderWorm]]).
 == Player-centric gaming ==
-The one area regarded by many as cheating is to have some advantage which the NPCs cannot get - category (3) above: that the playing field is unfairly tipped towards the player. This is tied in with the doctrine of player-centrism which it is felt that Oolite eschews (see [[User:Diziet Sma|Diziet Sma]] more recently - and [[User:Winston|Winston]] back in 2005 - all linked at the bottom of this page). Compared to [[Classic Elite]], Oolite is indeed far less player-centric: it's not ''just'' that your ship moves inside the Ooniverse (rather than the universe moving around your ship - as in the game coding in Elite).

And Oolite's NPCs interact with each other whether or not the player is there to see them.
-The debates about the [[Energy Bomb]] (see link - the player gets it, the NPC's don't) show the importance of this. They also showed how many people felt it was a cheat. While the people who wanted to keep the EB, wanted to keep faith with Classic Elite: it was one of the five weapons in the original game. Oolite being Oolite, it was eventually removed but preserved as an OXP option. Also see the debates over Norby's Telescope OXP in the 2013 thread below, and the discussion half way through the 2012 thread.

 But there are still at least four areas where Oolite retains some of Elite's player centrism:

 (From The Elite)
-  Have I ever met any Elite pilots myself? Just once. Two of them, though, that time – Ren Klaus, who'd gone back into bounty hunting after Klaus-Kline Labs folded, and Maricela Cedeño, who you'll recognise as the current president of the [[Elite Federation]], though back then she was working as a contract mercenary. Now, you know my general opinion on the [[Elite Rankings]]. Too much reward for blowing up people on the say-so of a Tiquat parking meter. It's taken me sixteen years in realspace to get most of the way to Deadly, and if you only count the kills I had a real choice in making, I'd barely rate Competent. So, don't put too much weight on the rankings in general.

Now, you know my general opinion on the [[Elite Rankings]]. Too much reward for blowing up people on the say-so of a [[Sector1/Tiquat|Tiquat]] parking meter. It's taken me sixteen years in realspace to get most of the way to Deadly (2560 kills), and if you only count the kills I had a real choice in making, I'd barely rate Competent (128+ kills). So, don't put too much weight on the rankings in general.
   But, to get to Elite is something else. Even for a cold killer, it requires more persistence, luck and skill than most people have. These two, their ships were technological miracles. I've been around a bit, and with a few favours here and there the Carapace has some kit you can't buy in the shops, but these two ... Klaus's looked like an Asp, just about, but I got a look at the specs while we were going through battle plans, and the inside made an Asp look like a Krait. The other ... I've never seen a ship like it before or since - must have been a complete custom build. Size of a Boa, and it could run circles around a Sidewinder. Must have cost her millions.
-  This was at the end of the last big Thargoid incursion, when systems were falling to them across the Eight. They'd taken [[Sector2/Isxees|Isxees]] early on in the conflict, and were laying siege to Ramaan's Keep – you ever wonder why it's called the Keep? That's why. There was a big joint fleet under Cooperative command massed at Titequ, and I'd ended up there after escorting one of their supply convoys, which is a whole other story.

   Now, you've got to remember this was a while ago. A lot of the kit people take for granted nowadays either didn't exist or couldn't be bought. No shield boosters except some early prototypes, fuel injectors worked but would burn an entire tank in a minute, and no hardheads. Well, almost no hardheads. If you check the dates, they went on general sale not long after the Battle of Isxees. The supply convoys had been bringing the parts in, secretly, to Titequ...
