ChaosRadio

[viscid viper]

ChaosRadio is a simple radio replacer for your SCP: SL servers running Exiled. It replaces both NTF and Chaos radios with their own individual channels.
This means that if you have a Chaos radio, you can talk to other people with a Chaos radio, and the same goes for NTF radios.

This plugin is quite customisable, and tries to keep the system as native to the base game as possible, hence why you can only replace spawned radios, and not
create new ones.

(p.s. I know that there is another chaos radio plugin below, but I've been working on this one for a bit and couldn't just drop it.)

@viscid viper please do a fucking transpiler

and remove the Log.Info

else they will spam

[viscid viper]

i legit just copied the base code

[viscid viper]

SHIT

[hallow valley]

that's why transpilers exist

lol

[viscid viper]

idek how transpilers work properly yet

it's much easier to do it this way imo

unless you give me pointers

[hallow valley]

and its much worse

[viscid viper]

worse in what way?

[hallow valley]

because its less cleaner and will run slower

[viscid viper]

i think it's cleaner

but where would I even start on a transpiler

[hallow valley]

by just starting where you made your code

[grim sinew]

Have you made a benchmark or are you just assuming stuff?

[hallow valley]

and there's example + alot of documentation on how to do them

[hallow valley]

I just reporting the word told me alot of times

[viscid viper]

yet IL is still fucking confusing as shit

[hallow valley]

nothing more

[viscid viper]

give me the documentation ur on about and ill make it into a transpiler

because idk man

[hallow valley]

and benchmarking will probably show just is slower in milliseconds but still its a big stuff for something this big

• if your copying games code its cleaner to do a transpiler

[grim sinew]

The "slower" part is very likely negligible, its just a call emmited into the method

[scenic nest]

id assume transpilers are better because it allows other mixins to also modify the same method

[hallow valley]

yea but just returns after that

[grim sinew]

Returns are not slow either

[hallow valley]

• if someone has another patch dynamic patches will allow to work

with it

by using prefix your not allowing other transpilers to work

[astral saddle]

okay java nerd

[hallow valley]

or anything else

[hallow valley]

real

mixins are my worst enemies from the days of velocity

[scenic nest]

i did minecraft modding when i waz 10 not that srs

[viscid viper]

zero just give ur transpiler documentation ill write it in transpiler

lol

[hallow valley]

with net.minecraft.server (nms)

[astral saddle]

#transpiler-questions has docs in the pinned

"docs"

[grim sinew]

Two transpilers targeted on the same method in two different plugins are very likely to break

[hallow valley]

i was about to write that

[hallow valley]

no?

your not removing that section

your just adding

so

[scenic nest]

how come? i dont know the first thing about IL but i assume youre just inserting code instruction into the middle of it right

[hallow valley]

yes

[scenic nest]

why cant two plugins insert code instructions

[hallow valley]

lol

Else like exiled would break everything

exiled is a transpiler

itself like all of the events are

if your thinking is applied then prefix and most of the stuff wouldn't work

if you think

Prefix just are bad practice because of that + they will run slower

[grim sinew]

Look at how most of the Exiled plugins find the target index. If anything inserts a matching instruction before the assumed one, it breaks

[grim sinew]

First you find the middle, and with multiple patches applied in random order it gets difficult

[hallow valley]

Don't you think that if that was the case, someone wouldn't already patched it?

• FindIndex is used just for that

to FIND that index

so the matching instruction

[viscid viper]

this is gunna take me forever to work out how the fuck transpilers work

[grim sinew]

Player.Banning
Anyone inserts Starg.S before the NW one - it breaks

[rapid ivy]

why are there two chaos radios now

[hallow valley]

You know how patches work right?

[astral saddle]

if they insert after

at the end

its finding the last one, not first

[grim sinew]

Player.ChangingNickname
Anyone inserts Brtrue before NW one - it breaks

[hallow valley]

Has anyone find any issues by this?

no

incredible because that's not an issue

[grim sinew]

cause patching the same method twice is not that popular

also, noone would publish a fail

survivorship bias

also, i did

had to fork exiled

[hallow valley]

Don't you think if someone say "Oh my exiled broke my patch"

none would found out

[muted aurora]

What’s the difference between this and the other plugin?

[grim sinew]

and change the index predicate

[hallow valley]

@viscid viper

[viscid viper]

huh

[hallow valley]

If you think that's an issue pr it

[hallow valley]

.

[grim sinew]

there is no issue, im just saying that transpilers can conflict with each other

[viscid viper]

they are both pretty much identical as far as ive looked, but ive not used either, this one has more customisability i think tho, and also keeps it more like the base game, no convoluted bs yk

[hallow valley]

"had to fork exiled and change the index predicate"

you know you can pr it and FIX IT?

right?

[grim sinew]

cause i wanted to patch the same method that exiled also patches

[hallow valley]

Ok but still

if you think that's a problem

PR it

it could be useful for someone in the future?

no?

[rugged iris]

Cool plugin

[maiden storm]

installed the plugin got this error couldnt join my server then removed the plugin and everything is fine

[viscid viper]

i’ll look when on pc

[neat trail]

great plugin, the fact that there are no transpilers makes me like it even more

But instead of using CustomItems couldn't you store the unique ID of each radio and decide which of these should be an ntf or chaos radio?

[scenic nest]

id assume thats faster and simple to implement but the performance improvement would probably be negligible

idk exactly how much goes into customitems tracking and stuff

[hallow valley]

https://tenor.com/view/think-mark-invincible-omniman-bhondamous-gif-22025607

Nah it didn’t work

But can you click it

[hallow valley]

Btw if you think you cannot see the difference in that case

[neat trail]

it would be more rp, I like rp

[hallow valley]

I know what kind of man you are

And btw if you asked me

[neat trail]

[hallow valley]

I’ve developed that for saturn

Alot of time ago

• after that an entire radio system which is the same as CB

(With original audios inside)

[neat trail]

You should get slaved for free on my server

[hallow valley]

Nameless and maro are more pretty that you

And honestly the italian community sucks ass

[neat trail]

[hallow valley]

Everyone is just creating cheap copies of each others

[hallow valley]

Yea i know incredible

[neat trail]

fuck you ❤️

[viscid viper]

i could, but what is really the difference?

also i think it would be easier to save the instance of the item, but there will be no point if there is no defining thing which only exists for that specific item

if that exists i can just have a list of chaos radios and ntf radios lol

oh there is legit serial numbers

i can use that ye

[neat trail]

1. You don't use custom items
2. You can do something more custom
3. it's better

[neat trail]

Exactly

[viscid viper]

what more customisability do i need though 😭

[neat trail]

Eeeehhh, idk, you can think about it in the future

You can use the Speaker toy

For a custom beep

Or….idk

[viscid viper]

wait

youre a genius or smth

rn i have to turn off all radios when on the floor

otherwise all channels will be used

no way to seperate

if i use speaker toy

i can just replicate the right channel

lol

i just dont know how they work

[neat trail]

I know

[viscid viper]

ok buddy

i need someone to test with now

[neat trail]

[viscid viper]

idk if the serial stuff will work

[neat trail]

Emh Emh Emh

I’m at school

It's 10:51 am here

[neat trail]

Me niether

[viscid viper]

ill look at scp prox chat

see how they do it

ill have to put filters on and stuff :c

[neat trail]

Ok, wait, what do you want to do

[viscid viper]

rn thrown radios have to be disabled otherwise they will get both ntf and chaos radio channels

so i just have a config option to disable thrown radios

but what we could do is just turn them off when thrown but put a speaker toy on them instead

:3

[neat trail]

Uh?

Why?

[viscid viper]

because when the data is sent to atleast 1 client, all clients will recieve floor radio signals

and there's no way to block that

you can block held radios tho

[neat trail]

Ah

So

Before the player throws it on the ground, you turn off the radio

Is there a way to make the radio heard by nearby players even if it is not held directly in the hand?

Rp thing

[viscid viper]

no that’s not native

[viscid viper]

btw @maiden storm i found the issue, will be sorted once i find a tester to test a new thing i did

[viscid viper]

https://github.com/LumiFae/ChaosRadio/releases/tag/1.1.0 released v1.1.0 which fixes some issues and now no longer relies on custom items

@neat trail check out the code for what i did in this case

[neat trail]

🫡

is it tested?

[viscid viper]

yeah

i tested it

had to get my gf on after she got home smh

[neat trail]

😏

[viscid viper]

im working on it

i got yelled at by zero

[neat trail]

why

if the plugin work correctly

[viscid viper]

because apparently i need to make it 1ms faster

[neat trail]

.-.

why

[scenic nest]

never pass an opportunity for learning is what i say

[hallow valley]

real learned transpiler and my life is a hell

but

they are cool

they make you appear like smart

[neat trail]

@viscid viper you can use this for speaker toy: https://discord.com/channels/656673194693885975/1319679574707277844

[viscid viper]

what's the difference between base game speaker toy and this?

oh it's just for playing audio

hm

ill take a look in a bit

[neat trail]

.-.

[viscid viper]

it's hell

[neat trail]

like Hay Day

lol

[viscid viper]

delaying the speakertoy version of grounded radios until my most recent exiled pr is merged and has a release

[viscid viper]

done :3

i just need someone to test this new stuff with me

also @cold mortar did you see this? i dont know if you did (you told me to tell you afaik)

[cold mortar]

oh yeah

[viscid viper]

it might be a bit buggy rn

[cold mortar]

but we made our version

[viscid viper]

damn

[cold mortar]

the other one

[viscid viper]

wdym

ah

ye

thing is, this one is about to get grounded radio support

seperated channels for grounded radios

:3

the other one merges channels

bit annoying

[cold mortar]

hmm

[viscid viper]

wdym

[cold mortar]

we checked it now

and it was fine

if item dropped

it uses seperate to

[viscid viper]

grounded radios can't with this dude's method

they merge

my method is different

so it does work

anyway, i need to test my thing

[viscid viper]

released v1.2.0 which allows for seperated chaos/ntf radio channels for grounded radios: https://github.com/LumiFae/ChaosRadio/releases/tag/1.2.0

[scenic nest]

Can you put a license please? I want to use this code. Thank you

[viscid viper]

may i ask exactly what you want to do with it?

[scenic nest]

im part of plugin team for a server and one thing on their "to-do" list is multi-channel radios

there's 3-4 channels in total they want

[viscid viper]

ur crazy 😭

[hallow valley]

Oh its simple

and you don't actually need code from here

[scenic nest]

i would like the ground radio feature

because i dont understand speakers

[hallow valley]

They are easy

Same as Dummies

but with another packet

[scenic nest]

plus the fact that this is implemented in a patch makes me afraid that my idea to use an eventhandler for voicechatting wont work

[viscid viper]

it will

probably

idk

i didnt know the event existed tbh

but im glad i did it with patch because there is a labapi version

[scenic nest]

oh yeah that is fair enough

[viscid viper]

ill put AGPL3 on it, like i do with all my projects

done

[lethal jewel]

[tame fox]

@soft plume Can you try this, basically the goal is the same, this might work for you

if so use this one it does the same thing

[soft plume]

okay gimme a sec

[tame fox]

but delete mine so there's no conflict.
