Radio Feature

Hey devs,

First off, loving Nuclear Nightmare! The atmosphere is killer, and teaming up with friends makes it even better. One thing that could amp up the experience is an in-game radio for chatting. It'd make coordinating during those intense moments way easier and keep the immersion strong without needing external apps. Just a thought to make an awesome game even better!

Cheers!

There used to be radios in the item pool but they were removed.

You can start with a radio by checking the 'start with radio' option and everyone starts with one.

Unless you mean a stationary radio at various locations. That would be cool.

Yeah that would be cool. Would be great if hand radios only worked if the satellite was fixed up and powered on, but didn't take a slot. Then would give purpose to having a player or two hang out at the radio station to keep your ability to talk to one another going. Really up to the dev though and I think he's got his hands full.

It would be good idea that radio works only ~10 minutes and then it need repair

I think a Base Station at a couple points on the map would be cool. Only broadcast while you interact with them, and receive as long as the generator is turned on. Drill Rig, Airport, and Base Camp 1 could be good places for one. Too many would make the game too easy, but too few would limit their usefulness too much.

I kind of wish the Radio was attached to the players and not a separate item that only existed if you turned on a specific check-box when hosting. Maybe give them limited battery life, and stash either charging stations at the Base Stations, or something similar.

Lots of ways to play with these ideas, only issue is coding problems or inability to get it to work without creating tons of other bugs.
