Global Chat Radio

Description
Global Chat Radios
Global Chat Radios is a mod allows you to use global chat only when you have a walkie-talkie in your main inventory.

When this mod is enabled, global chat (/all) can only be accessed by using a walkie-talkie. Each walkie-talkie type can be enabled or disabled in the sandbox settings as shown in slide 2 of this workshop page.

This mod allows server administrators to be able to utilise the easy-to-access global chat, while keeping accessing and communicating between users a challenge initially. This should encourage people to role-play more effectively.

Known Bugs & Issues
  • Users can see global chat without a radio.
  • Account name is used instead of Characters.
  • Desk radios are not currently supported.

NOTE: ANY OTHER MOD THAT OVERWRITES "/all" WILL INTERFERE WITH THIS MOD.

not sure if it's this mod but running into an issue where prox chat doesn't work via radio. does this mod change range or mess with voice chat via the radio? It's the only mod we have that has anything to do with the walkies

Do radios have to be on for users to be able to chat in global? ( thus requiring batteries )
Or just having an empty non functional radio enables the chat?

Hey can this be added to an existing multiplayer server or does the server need to be re-init'd for this to work?
It would use the default sandbox vars if added to an existing save right?
(If so can you share what the defaults are?)

Just checked. It still not working even without "keep this radio on lite"

Just everybody can use global chat without walkie talkie. Maybe it happening because of mod "keep this radio on lite" I guess

@Yuri-chan what's happening specifically? It shouldn't cause any issues, but if theres another mode that plays with the chat, it will interfere with it

So it seems that mod doesn't work on our server. What can cause that? I mean a mod conflict or just a bug in mod?

such a cool mod idea

I've basically had to re-write the entire mod. Thankfully, if I can get some testing done soonish, I can get character names out by Friday at the absolute latest!

Still learning the ropes of Lua and the documentation. Hopefully I can squash out character names tonight :)
