Hi,
I've implemented a check for implementations that need a Doppler effect
adjustment to be able to hear them but there might be implementations
that sound exaggerated now. If so, please specify which ones and I'll
update the check procedure.

Hi James,
the effect you are discussing is not the Doppler effect, but just the
volume as a function of the distance. Every aircraft has its own sound
definition including the distance, where the volume is halved

(). The volume as a function o
The doppler effect (which I currently have working through the
USE_SOFTWARE_DOPPLER define) has never sounded very "real" to my ear.
Recently I've wondered if it might be to do with the "volume dropoff"
not being enough.
It's hard to subjectively quantify the dropoff in the flyby, but for

It works fine; ATIS and marker beacons are no longer Doppler
