Title: Limit Radio use
Post by: Alan34 on 23 Mar 2003, 16:05:04

What is the best way to limit radio use to the Group Leader?

I have a hazy recollection that only the group leader can use it anyway ...... is this a multiplayer question?

It is a MP mission and currently anyone can use the radio (others have to access it from Map/Radio) but still anyone can use it.  I need to restrict it to Group Leader.

What happens when the radio call is activated?  If you execute a script, then the script can check if the radio caller is the group's leader.

In your script, you can add the following code at the beginning:

? (leader player != player) : exit

This checks if the player (the unit causing the script to be executed) is the leader of his respective group.  If not, then the script will exit.
