About this mod Author’s original text
Setup
I alway wanted to make mining a bit more dangerous, since it is a rather boring activity, and turn mining into something like a dedicated mining mission requiring protection. In vanilla, however, mining and chopping wood have the same noise, so noise based spawners would also target chopping wood, which would be excessive. This mod lets you configure noise from mining and chopping. Mining Noise also increases when repeatedly carried out, before it falls off.
Also included are two biome specific SpawnThat spawner configs of noise sensitive guards. Currently they are more balanced towards group play, so maybe turn down SpawnChance and MaxSpawned.
Details:
Mining noise is turned into a logistic function, which means that mining noise will increase with repetition of the activity and slowly increase towards the global maximum set in the configs. Note however, that since all noise also decreases at 4 per seconds, only a lower threshold can be readhed (since there is a cooldown to pickaxe use).

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
