Scripting Guru's,
I would like to know, if it's possible, how to create a BAS_Satcom that is capable of monitoring all global radio messages. The premise here is to have a Satcom pack that when in the inventory of the player, allows the player to hear/see all global radio messages for East/West/Resist forces. It would not broadcast, only receive global traffic, but work as a normal radio in all other respects. I would like to make it have a variable range available (in script, not as action), so that it could be tailored to specific missions, as the player would not need to get message traffic from the other side of the island unless necessary. I have looked all over for some type of tutorial on radios, but the only one I could find was not helpful. I am relatively new to mission editing/scripting so please spell it out like you're explaining it to a 3 year old, if you have the patience.
As well, I think it would be interesting to create a radio monitoring script attached to a vehicle (any type), which would then vector in the vehicle with a squad (3-4 guys) to the last known location of a radio broadcast.
Any help greatly appreciated,
Treadstone
