Radio communication (Walkie talkies)

Post » Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:30 am

A simple idea which would enhance gameplay.


The ability to interact with and command your companions from anywhere in the commonwealth.


You must have a radio both in your and your companions inventory.


Equipping the radio and pressing attack button opens a menu to select which companion you want to speak (Dependant on who has radio). Its just like having them right there with you except you cannot trade items long distance.


Asking companion to follow you will make them do so however there is a delay to simulate your companion travelling to your location (Maybe 3-5 mins?) until they warp to your area.


Once companion is actively following you, holding down strong attack allows you to command them like vanilla except you dont need to look at them. They will simply do as you command. This is useful if for example you said "Stay", wandered around a corner and want companion to move forward without you having to go back to "look" at them.


This mod will allow you to do many things includin

-Find lost companions without console

-Get quests off preston without him tagging along

-Swap companions when out in wilderness.

-Simply chat to them with the "Relationship" and "Chat" dialogue options for active companions.


Although radio takes no power, with the mod be nice if you could add a radik charging station. Its just a small metalic holder for 2 radios you can place on a table in your house, for aesthetic purposes. Maybe even witha little green light if you store a radio inside its container?


Anyways let me know what you think.

Oh and the voice on radio sounds like u wearing power armour.
