Radio Ga Ga"You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly"
About this little modThis mod is a response to this legit
issue report.
Features:
1) Radio tracks will play regardless of the "Setup > Sound Setup > General > Play Music" setting status
...and remember...
- You must have some tracks in the \samples\Music\Radio\ folders
- The "Misc > Realistic Navigation" difficulty setting must be enabled to have access to beacons
- You must set Next/Previous beacon control keys (Misc section)
- The mission must have a radio station object nearby, army=none or army=yours
- If you are far from the antenna you will only get static noise
2) Radio tracks will have a random STARTING order - no random playback of tracks, no, no, no (*) - tracks will play in order. This change also impacts other music folders such as TakeOff, InFlight, Crash...
(*) Why? If you only have three tracks a random solution could select the same track three times in a row. Implementing it right would require an elaborated, unnecessary in my opinion, solution and I opted for this alternative.
