Radio Interaction

FIREWALL · 05-08-11, 12:22 PM

I was wondering if there's a way to make a Mod so we can send our own radio messages (edit) and get a random number of responces from Bdu.

Or is this another of the many "can't do because it's Hard Coded" issues ?

edit: Something simular was in SHII iirc

No, no Mod, and no not possible...

You have only the generic response of sunk-tonnage xxxxx.

Why ?

Yes it's possible, but only by changing the stock message before loading the game. You therefore send the usual message and get a 'randomly generated' message back, but I don't know how to change it during a patrol (i.e. receive multiple messages as you asked).

I used SH3 Commander to enable this little mod that proves the concept and gives you a random second patrol grid: http://www.mediafire.com/?gdym4o3gjky. I also randomised the usual response so it is less repetitive.

And an excellent mod it is W-B

I have it installed and a world of difference it makes.

I guess I want more than the game engine can supply.

It would have to for example... If I could send " I'm damaged" It would undestand and respond... "Return to Base" for example.

I'm afraid that is beyond my skills. I only know how to generate one 'response' from BdU so you would end up getting "Return to Base" after every message you sent.
