radio

Vars

broadcastingWhether the radio will transmit dialogue it hears nearby into its radio channel.
canhear_rangeBoth the range around the radio in which mobs can hear what it receives and the range the radio can hear
channelsassociative list of the encrypted radio channels this radio is currently set to listen/broadcast to, of the form: list(channel name = TRUE or FALSE)
commandIf true, use_command can be toggled at will.
empedTracks the number of EMPs currently stacked.
freerangeIf true, the radio has access to the full spectrum.
freqlockFrequency lock to stop the user from untuning specialist radios.
frequencythe "default" radio frequency this radio is set to, listens and transmits to this frequency by default. wont work if the channel is encrypted
independentIf true, can say/hear over non common channels without working tcomms equipment (for ERTs mostly).
listeningWhether the radio is currently receiving radio messages from its radio frequencies.
onif FALSE, broadcasting and listening dont matter and this radio shouldnt do anything
secure_radio_connectionsassociative list of the encrypted radio channels this radio can listen/broadcast to, of the form: list(channel name = channel frequency)
should_be_broadcastingused for tracking what broadcasting should be in the absence of things forcing it off, eg its set to broadcast but gets emp'd temporarily
should_be_listeningused for tracking what listening should be in the absence of things forcing it off, eg its set to listen but gets emp'd temporarily
subspace_switchableIf true, subspace_transmission can be toggled at will.
subspace_transmissionIf true, the radio transmits and receives on subspace exclusively.
unscrewedWhether wires are accessible. Toggleable by screwdrivering.
use_commandIf true, broadcasts will be large and BOLD.

Var Details

broadcasting

Whether the radio will transmit dialogue it hears nearby into its radio channel.

channels

associative list of the encrypted radio channels this radio is currently set to listen/broadcast to, of the form: list(channel name = TRUE or FALSE)

command

If true, use_command can be toggled at will.

emped

Tracks the number of EMPs currently stacked.

freerange

If true, the radio has access to the full spectrum.

freqlock

Frequency lock to stop the user from untuning specialist radios.

frequency

the "default" radio frequency this radio is set to, listens and transmits to this frequency by default. wont work if the channel is encrypted

independent

If true, can say/hear over non common channels without working tcomms equipment (for ERTs mostly).

listening

Whether the radio is currently receiving radio messages from its radio frequencies.

on

if FALSE, broadcasting and listening dont matter and this radio shouldnt do anything

secure_radio_connections

associative list of the encrypted radio channels this radio can listen/broadcast to, of the form: list(channel name = channel frequency)

should_be_broadcasting

used for tracking what broadcasting should be in the absence of things forcing it off, eg its set to broadcast but gets emp'd temporarily

can_receive

Checks if this radio can receive on the given frequency.

get_broadcasting

simple getter for the broadcasting variable. necessary due to VAR_PROTECTED

get_frequency

simple getter for the frequency variable. necessary due to VAR_PROTECTED

get_listening

simple getter for the listening variable. necessary due to VAR_PROTECTED

is_on

simple getter for the on variable. necessary due to VAR_PROTECTED

set_broadcasting

setter for broadcasting that makes us not hearing sensitive if not broadcasting and hearing sensitive if broadcasting hearing sensitive in this case only matters for the purposes of listening for words said in nearby tiles, talking into us directly bypasses hearing

set_listening

setter for the listener var, adds or removes this radio from the global radio list if we are also on

set_on

setter for the on var that sets both broadcasting and listening to off or whatever they were supposed to be
