SWCC StormWorks Communications Commission
⚡ SWCC — StormWorks Communications Commission
Purpose:
The SWCC regulates in-game radio and TV stations on Stormworks servers. Its goal is to prevent frequency conflicts and ensure each station has a unique ID and frequency.
1. Station Registration
-Every station must have a unique Station ID (integer).
-Audio/Video broadcasts are blocked if the ID is invalid.
-Station info (name, description) is stored online via the SWCC registration site.
2. Frequency Ranges
| Type | Frequency Range |
| Radio | 0 – 150 |
| TV / Video | 151 – 300 |
| Emergency | 301 – 320 |
IDs outside these ranges are invalid and cannot broadcast.
Frequencies are automatically derived from the Station ID.
3. MC Rules
- Station MC (Transmitter):
- Sends audio/video signals only if the ID is valid.
- Outputs a composite with Station ID on channel 1 for receivers.
Receiver MC:
- Checks Station ID against the SWCC site.
- Blocks audio/video if the ID is invalid.
- Displays "INVALID STATION ID" if ID is wrong.
4. Player Responsibilities
- Register your station on the SWCC website before broadcasting.
- Only one station may use a given Station ID at a time.
- Follow the frequency ranges to avoid interference.
5. Notes
- This system is community-enforced; Stormworks does not have built-in regulation.
- Frequencies are integers; no decimals.
- The system supports audio, video, and composite signals.
