Key binding for muting sound
« on: January 07, 2019, 11:32:23 pm »

A keybinding option for turning sound on/off.  Currently this can only be done from the init file.  There isn't even a keybinding option to raise or lower volume.

Aren't the only sounds the intro movie and the main theme? You could just leave them off.

+1.  Sometimes you just need to kill the background music for a second while someone asks you how much longer you're going to be up playing DF.

In vanilla DF, unfortunately init.txt one setting totally disables all sounds in DF. Other setting is ignored until you access music menu. There the bar for music will be set with your init.txt desire. You just need to lower or rise volume of music by 1 notch to have it to take effect. Having 2 buttons for rising and lowering sound/music's volume, could be useful.
