Hide radio until needed?

[-=FW=-Platty 0]

I'd like to keep the radio and/or radio commands hidden from use until it's needed in a mission I'm building. I've searched the forums here but can't get the solutions I found working.

Anyone help me out here? Or perhaps suggest a mission to de-crypt so I can see what a 'working' solution looks like?

you should use the ENABLERADIO FALSE command at the beginning of your mission and ENABLERADIO TRUE whenever you want to hear and read the radio messages again.

I hope it helps

take a look at this http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setRadioMsg

and also here:

If you using this kind of command (true/false inside it), maybe you can do this:

enableRadio _yahooooo

Where _yahoo = ((count _ArrayWithAlivePlayers) == 0)

It was an example, not a real and/or useful script.

Hi Platty,

Follow nuxil's idea. Use the setRadioMsg command to be a blank name

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">0 setRadioMsg "NULL"

will make it disappear from the radio. Use setRadioMasg to make it come back also

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">0 setRadioMsg "Call for Help"

the 0 relates to Alpha radio:

Alpha = 0,

Beta = 1,

Charlie = 2,

etc...

Thanks all, I now see the mistake, the OFPEC articles lead me to believe 'alpha' channel was '1' in the channels list, not '0'.
