CB Radio Helpers

V1.0.4.2

32 975

Description

UPDATE: now control the hourly wage of your helper!

Get some CB radio chatter from your helpers! Instead of helpers just popping into their vehicle, you'll get alerted with an audio "CB" shout out.

A discrete GUI panel is also added for combines showing each machine in service, their fill load percentage, speed, helper, field, direction and alert status (like combine full).

Over 200 samples (and growing)!
ALPHA German and French release
ALPHA multiplayer support
Know when helpers have started, get blocked or have completed a task.
"ride along" greetings if you tab into a helper's vehicle
Multiple voicing scripts help make the CB chatter non-repetitive
Supports male and female voices
Helpers have names (not just A, B, etc)
Hourly alerts
Weather alerts
Sunrise/Sunset alerts

Works with Courseplay

NOTE:
the CB audio is in English with ALPHA German and French. More language packs to come.

the multiplayer is still a work in progress, but does operate

DO NOT use with the FS22_HelperNameHelper mod. it is changing the helper ID issued from the GIANTS engine, creating issues with the role/gender voicing logic in this mod
