Player Communications

WARNING: This is a Stationeers Launchpad Plugin Mod. It requires BepInEx to be installed with the Stationeers Launchpad plugin. Installation Guide: github.com/StationeersLaunchPad/StationeersLaunchPad

Player Communications adds immersive directional voice chat to Stationeers, allowing players to communicate using voice chat whether it be face-to-face or over long distances using radios.

Features

• Face-to-Face Voice Chat: Voices are affected by environmental factors such as pressure, helmets, helium, and world occlusion.
• Directional Audio: When speaking face-to-face, voices are heard based on their position and orientation.
• Voice Mode: Adjustable face-to-face talking voice which affects how loud you are and how far your audio travels. (Indicator on External UI Window)
• Radio Communication: Enables long-range communication between players.
• Radio Talk Over Protection: Only 1 transmitter is allowed on a channel at a time.
• Radio Channels: Up to 16 Radio Channels.
• Radio Storage: A Radio Storage in the Locker Kit.
• Radio Tower: A Radio Tower to increase signal strength and transmission/reception distance.
• Steam Voice Integration: Removed in 1.6.0 – fully Unity-based microphone system now used.
• Custom Key Binds: Custom Keybinds in the controls settings under Player Communications.
• Transmission modes: PTT & Continuous transmission (Stationeers > Workshop > Click on the mod).
• Custom Lore: New entry in the factions page with custom lore.

Notes

• Helmets, atmospheric pressure, helium in the lungs, and objects affect voice transmission.
• Helium dynamically raises voice pitch based on how much is present in the lungs.
• Voices are directional for face-to-face communication.
• Configure your microphone in Unity before launching.
• Dedicated Server Compatible.
• Radio tower base power usage is 200W, scaling with logic setting (1 Meter = 3W).
• Default tower signal is 250 Meters (750W + Base Power).
• Ongoing: Bug where players can still be heard over radios in vacuum not yet fully resolved.

Requirements

• StationeersLaunchPad with BepInEx installed.
