Summary
OSWS Radio Rework - Changing the vanilla radio systems to have a balance between authentic real world radio systems and gameplay.
Description
Radio Rework:
Realistic Radio Range - Handheld radios for all factions now have a reduced range of 400 meters.
Single Band Capabilities - Each handheld radio is limited to a single channel. Players must carry multiple radios if they want to listen to multiple frequencies at one time.
Enhanced Backpack Radios - Backpack radios have been significantly buffed, boasting a range of 5 kilometers while operating on the same frequency spectrum as handheld radios, ensuring effective long-range communication and interoperability between squads.
Modified Vanilla Radios - All vanilla radios have been replaced with modified versions to align with the new system. However, players can still find the original radios in civilian arsenals, unaffected by these changes.
Global Radio Volume Controls - Players can now control the globabl volume for their radios (from 10% to 100%). The volume control can be found by equipping the radio in hand and tuning the volume yourself. A radial wheel dial is in the works.
Vehicle and Aircraft Crew Helmet Radios - All crew helmets have a 10m short range radio designed to mimic crew internal communication systems.
Removal of player VON UI for both local and radio. You will only see the channel that someone was speaking out of, but will no longer see their name.
