this mod idea is somthing that i thought up of but dont really wanna dedicate the time to learn how to do since ive never created a mod.

The idea is simple Machenes make alotta racket some the noise is so bad it can damage pawns hearing over time.
causing debuffs of "i got no sleep" - pawn sleeping next to a noisy machine or noisy lovers though the vents.
to "Nauseating Racket" pawn not having hearing protection around a very noisy or loud enviroment.
witch can cause pawns with the "weak" or "feeble" trait to start puking. others it would just make them feel sick ontop of the noise debuff.
this can also effect guns as whell making them emunate noise when being fired

noise can also act like the Drone of a psy ship the longer the exposure the more likely a pawn snaps

Why is this mod interesting it will encourage players to restructure there bases to try and reduce noise pollution or at least the risk of it getting too high. & there is potentual for mod compatibility to make noise reduction easier.

Default items & Fetures:
Drop pods are very noisy
Meditation spots that are not exposed to noise decrease Noise drone %50 faster
Cotton buds - early game noise reduction
Ear buds & Earmuffs - midgame noise reduction
Earmuff Radio's - for pawn to pawn communicating with noise reduction. - can act as just a radio for music
Noise worship: Ideology idea for pawns that wanna worship noise of all kinds. gains a buff for noise exposure.

Hearing protection rack - stores hearing protection equipment

Noisy zone allocation option - pawns will look to equip held or nearby hearing protection before entering.
Pawns with Traits that make them dumb have a chance to ignore this.

Mod compatibility:
Bionic ears - allow selective noise to go though and remove the need for hearing protection.
Insulation mod - the better the inslator the better the noise wont leak out from walls.
Any mod that adds Silencers to Guns
Music mods: Music is a good noise but some pawns prefere the silence instead not shure what trait will decide that.
Rimatomics: Exposure to rockets is very noisy and can make pawns def for a day or permanently with enough exposure.
Expanded drop pods & Ship building mods, Lets trade mod: same as above ^
