I was reading a thread on the EV3 board when I came across this:

what it does is replace the warp noise (which defines the length of the jump) with just a small shot of sound, making the jump just as long as the sound itself.
it was made originally for EV, but not for EVO, so what i did is replace the EVO warp up sound with the sound from the plug for EV- instant warp...**
Now, I've never released a plug to the EV community because I never did anything worth crowing about (except maybe the ship that carried more ships like itself, so it divided like a bacterium when attacked. Nice for a govt using organic tech. A little creapy to see a bunch of little balls quickly filling up the system and pecking you to death with their lousy weapons), but I tinker a lot. The thing is, I never heard about the trick of using a shorter "jump engine" sound to leave the system faster. How COOL!
The thing is, why isn't this trick documented? Same thing with adding more escort sound replies (there was a plug for EV, but is this used in EVO?). I'd think there'd be a section in the Bible called Misc Coolness that talks about things like this and what other cool tricks have people discovered that are not documented?
So, what have the folks of the developers board discovered that isn't documented? Besides easter eggs, that is.
