Staff tools

Two tools for running an operation: the comms log for staff after the op, and the comms card for every player during it.

4.5.1

The comms log

Staff type /commslog in the Roblox chat (not in TeamSpeak). A window lists every radio call this round, newest first: when, who, which net and frequency, how long, how many heard it and how many only weakly, and one word if something went wrong: BATTERY DIED, CUT, DOUBLED or MISSED.

  1. Click a call to see who heard it
  2. Filter by net, by person, or problems only
  3. Copy as text puts the list in a box you can copy into Discord
It lives on the game serverThe log is kept in the server's memory and is gone when that server closes. It isn't sent to us.
4.5.2

Who is staff

Roblox user ids in CommsLog.StaffUserIds, separated by commas, and/or everyone at a rank or above in a Roblox group. In Studio everyone is staff, so you can try it alone. Anyone else who types the command is told it's for staff only.

Set this before your first opIn a published game an empty staff list means nobody can open the log.
4.5.3

The comms card

Players press M for a card on the right of the screen: their team's nets, then the nets everyone shares (AIR, GUARD), each with its frequency and a small tag for each radio they have on it, such as 163 · SLOT 1 · CH 1. A switched-off radio's tag is grey. The card only shows; it changes nothing. M again or the X closes it.
