Overview

Real Car Radio

In-game radio stations are fine until you have heard every track a hundred times. This script lets players paste a YouTube link or a direct mp3/OGG url and blast it for everyone in and around the car. Old-school rap, a rock classic, whatever they want, and since songs can be saved to the vehicle, on repeat is always an option.

Every vehicle can run one of two radio designs, and you decide in the settings which vehicles get which one.

The audio reacts to the surroundings

This is not a flat music stream. Playback uses 3D positional audio, hearing distance changes depending on whether the doors are open, and you can set a custom distance per vehicle model. The pbus2, for example, ships with 100 meters of hearable audio by default. You can also tell the script to ignore audio effects for specific vehicle models or interior IDs.

Where players get a radio

A simple marker in the world hands out the radio. Lock it to specific jobs or leave it open for everyone. Dropping it at your mechanic shop turns installing a radio into one more roleplay interaction.
