Three cases play this sound:

  • An order for anything other than a structure is placed while its production slot is busy, and the queue is full or the type has reached its build limit. Only a house the player controls hears it.
  • A sidebar scroll arrow is clicked on a column already at its end, whether the click scrolls or pages the column. A keyboard command that scrolls or pages both columns plays it only when neither column can move; a command for one column never plays it.
  • Repair is ordered on a structure already at maximum strength. The sound plays at the structure, and only for a house the player controls.

A movement order that an object cannot carry out does not play it.
