Description

Description:
Sends the audio message to the side radio channel. Must have assigned "ItemRadio" to send or receive the transmission. The message is defined in CfgRadio in the description.ext file or config radio protocol. The transmission will play only on the PC where command was executed. If you need the transmission to play on all computers, you have to execute it globally (see remoteExec).

Note: When transmitting unit gets killed, transmission will be interrupted, however when receiving unit gets killed, the transmission continues to play.

Syntax

Syntax:
unit sideRadio radioName
Parameters:
unit: Object - unit to transmit
radioName: String - class name from CfgRadio
Return Value:
Nothing

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
[side, identity] sideRadio radioName
Parameters:
[side, identity]: Array
side: Side - side to which the transmission will be played
identity: String - class name of one of the identities in CfgHQIdentities. Possible identities in Arma 3 are:
  • "Base"

  • "AirBase"
  • "BLU"
  • "OPF"
  • "IND"
  • "IND_G"

In OFP v1.96, sideRadio messages can be sent from 2 abstract sources: "Papa_Bear" and "Base FireFly". Use sideRadio on an array in the form [SIDE,"base"],[SIDE,"HQ"],[SIDE,"Papa_bear"] or [SIDE,"airbase"], where SIDE is the side broadcasting. "HQ", "base" and "Papa_bear" seem to be the same object. The callsign strings can be re-defined using a stringTable.csv file, using STR_CFG_PAPABEAR and STR_CFG_FIREFLYBASE. Example : [EAST,"base"] sideRadio "returnToBase".
