Emergency Services Chat - sezski - 2016-08-30 15:31

Alright, I've just now been talking to Adorable because I had problems with LFSGary and had a thought; what if the MED/TOW/RES/COP services had their own chats, being individual (own service), messaging from one chat to another (one service to one other), or a massive group chat containing all four of them. It's not like we've already got a cop chat, chase chat and whatever else there is (didn't do all my research) What do you think?

It would benefit others as well (non MED/TOW/RES/COP) because cops would be able to bind a command saying something along the lines of "RTC At:" then they use "!location/direction" or something similar to that anyways.

This has been suggested in the past, I can't see why there isn't channel chat specifically for TOW/MED/RES already. It would allow for them to communicate better when on scene of a crash. Similar to how a COP's give directions to other COP's.

Probably really simple to add as channels for roles already exist. Tongue


RE: Emergency Services Chat - Spark - 2016-08-30 15:38

Yup, that's another thing that's missing from [TC] servers.

I wouldn't know if it had been suggested before but it isn't here so maybe it will be Wink

I don't understand why it isn't already here because it would help with communication between their roles. Especially COPS asking for some assistance with towing or something or saying to them that they've been in a chase and a crash happened (crossfire or suspect/cop) or at the end, you know?

There's a nice search function! A simple search in the forum on "TOW Chat" got me a thread with this exact topic. However replying to that one would bump it and that's against the forum rules.

I agree with the suggestion! +1

Oh really I never ever knew that! xD I'm playing but you know, I thought I'd retry getting this on because why the heck not eh?!

I think it'd just be better if we could be in multiple channels at once. Which has also been suggested I think.

Well , i think that the idea is not having both channels at time (which already has been suggested) , its like COP chat.

You can be in your !ch , but for emergency use !c for backups and all things.
For services like MED TOW RES , use !r ,!rdriection , !rlocation


RE: Emergency Services Chat - Kyle - 2016-08-30 17:30

I love this idea and I dunno why it's not here already tbh.

I know, hence why I think it would be better if we could be in more than one channel at a time rather than simply adding another fixed chat.

As well as being a useful feature, people could also willingly join and leave an official / designated emergency chat channel. If an emergency services chat is added (not the 'extra channels') I definitely think you should be able to block it. The cop chat is one thing, but it is easier to be a [MED]/[RES] than a [COP], therefore more inexperienced players, which means the chat would get very annoying if you couldn't mute it for yourself.

Having the option to join multiple channels would be great. I'd like to be in 6s and French channel at the same time. Biggrin

The problem starts when you try to send a message.

We could have like !ch <Message> <channelname> if it this what u mean


RE: Emergency Services Chat - Ph4nToM - 2016-08-30 18:07

Could it be like !ch1 !ch2? I don't know anything about coding so no clue if that's even possible.

Yes, didn't think of that. Then we need to have command to assign the channels to the numbers.

Maybe like an insim box which you could select the channel and type messages in that box or once selected, you would use !ch <message> maybe


RE: Emergency Services Chat - Adorable - 2016-08-30 18:49

!ch <Message> <channelname>

An easy solution would be splitting the entered string and adding it into an array. Then you get the last item of the array and that'd be the channelname(in c#: array.Length -1). store channelname into a variable and use later on when sending / receiving messages. I think that's how it should work.

I understand absolutely none of that xD
