Due to bandwidth usage, this feature is automatically enabled with the Pro version only!
If someone nearby has a radio, you'll hear the radio traffic they’re listening to coming from their device. The closer they are the louder the radio traffic will be. However, if they're using an earpiece, the audio won’t be audible to others.
When someone with a nearby radio enters a vehicle, the radio audio will become muffled. However, if a door is open, or a window is down or broken, the audio will become clearer and louder again.
When someone is making an emergency call to a dispatcher, nearby users will faintly hear the dispatcher's voice coming from the caller's phone.
When someone is carrying (or has placed down) a radio scanner, nearby users will hear the channel that the scanner is set to.
Players can adjust the nearby radio volume in-game using the /radiovolume
command.
Ex: /radiovolume 75
sets the nearby radio to 75% volume.
Some communities may offer custom EUP (clothing and accessories) that players can use to personalize their characters. For radio users, an option to wear an earpiece (headphones) could be useful, allowing them to listen to radio chatter privately without others nearby overhearing.
Communities can easily select which clothing items will be treated as a radio earpiece.
Open the earpiece configuration menu via /radiomenu
> Configure Earpiece Chatter
To add a chatter exclusion click "Add Earpiece Item" and select the component you'd like to add. Additionally, select any specific textures that will be considered an earpiece.
Once selected, anyone wearing this earpiece will not emit radio chatter to nearby users.
To remove an earpiece option, navigate to the Remove Earpiece Item
Menu option > Select the specific earpiece item > and Confirm Removal
