It was restricted to 3 channels and players could only connect to any one channel and only use that one channel.
OPFOR players could not access it.
The reason I am making this post is because of two reasons.
1) Players were asking how to use it/ What it's for
2) I updated it to support more channels so to make a clear understanding of what each is for
The following changes have been made:
1) 10 Custom channels added
- Channel 31) Emergency
Channel 32) JTAC
Channel 33) Air
Channel 34) ALPHA Fireteam
Channel 35) BRAVO Fireteam
Channel 36) CHARLIE Fireteam
Channel 37) DELTA Fireteam
Channel 38) ECHO Fireteam
Channel 39) CSAR Fireteam
3) The radio's required in inventory to allow radio use
4) Players can connect/disconnect to has many channels as they wish
So onto how to use it and what each is for:
Channel 31) Emergency
- The Acting CO should always have this channel active
Players can use this channel to call in an emergency (Medic/squad lead down etc..)
- The Recon/Eagle and Hawk should always have this channel active
Recon can call in Fire mission for both Eagle and Hawk
Channel 33) Air
- Support Pilots should always have this channel active
Pilots can use this channel to contact other pilots in the air
Channel 34) ALPHA Fireteam
Channel 35) BRAVO Fireteam
Channel 36) CHARLIE Fireteam
Channel 37) DELTA Fireteam
Channel 38) ECHO Fireteam
- All Fire team members should join there squads fire team channel
The purpose of this is to reduce your squad leaders comms.
So an example -
Fire team members report to Team leader (Fireteam channel)
Team leader reports to squad leader (Group channel)
Squad leader reports to CO (Command channel)
- CSAR Players should always have this channel active
Players can contact CSAR in the event of medical assistance
CSAR can also hope into the Squads Fire team Channel to work with that squad when on site
HOW TO USE:
1) Each player has access to the radio if they have the radio in their inventory. Use scroll wheel and click on radio
2)Enter the channel by typing the number you wish to connect/Disconnect from in the black box
3) Click "ENT" to connect to a channel or Click "CLR" to disconnect from a channel
4) Using normal keys to switch channels in game. You can select the channel you wish to communicate in
This update is not live on the server 1 yet as I am tweaking other scripts first. But should be up today (15/03/17) or tomorrow (16/03/17)
