Replaces Barotrauma's single-channel radio system with a virtual multi-channel radio console. Crew members can
communicate on dedicated department channels while a broadcast channel reaches everyone.
Features
- 7 virtual radio channels with on-screen channel selector
- Channel 0: Broadcast — reaches all players (recipients can mute)
- Channel 1-6: Medical, Dive Team, Security, Engineering, Fabricator, Command
- Check multiple channels to listen and talk on several at once
- Mute broadcast checkbox to opt out of channel 0
- Full radio effects (voice filter, distance attenuation) on all channels
- Works with voice chat and text radio chat
How It Works
- Equip any headset — a channel panel appears on your HUD (bottom-right)
- Check the channels you want to join
- Uncheck channels you don't need
- Channel 0 (Broadcast) is special: if you have it checked, your voice reaches ALL players regardless of their channel
selections — unless they've muted broadcasts
Requirements
- LuaCsForBarotrauma (server-side only — clients do NOT need Lua installed)
- This mod must be at the TOP of your mod load order
Compatibility
- Vanilla headsets
- Barotraumatic headsets (Pressure Injector, Auto-Injector, Advanced Headset, Long Range Radio)
- Enhanced Armaments headsets (SGT Headset, Long Range Radio Kit, Black-Ops Hardcase Backpack)
Note: This mod overrides headset item definitions from the above mods. It must load FIRST (top of mod list) to ensure
the channel UI appears on all headsets. If a compatible mod updates and headsets change, this mod may need updating.
Beta Notice
This mod is in active development. Voice routing across channels is functional but still being tested. Please report
issues and feedback.
