The Radio is a type of Item found in SCP: Secret Laboratory.
In Game
Radios allow for long range communication between other players who have Radios, regardless of what team they may be on.
Radios start with 100% charge, which will slowly deplete if the Radio remains active. Higher ranges will drain power faster.
Holding down V will allow the player to use the Radio. The Radio does not need to be equipped in order to use it.
One can change the channels by equipping the Radio and pressing Left Click. There are currently 4 ranges: Short Range, Medium Range, Long Range and Ultra Range (SR, MR, LR, UR).
The Radio can be turned on or off by pressing Right Click.
While the Radio is turned off, battery will not be consumed.
Spawning
- Standard Lockers [6.25%]
- Weapon Locker Type 21 (Drawer) [25%]
- LCZ Armory [100%]
- HCZ Ammunition Armory [100%]
- Spawns on all MTF Operatives and Facility Guards.
- The Radio will automatically be turned on upon spawning and set to the MR range.
Range
- Short Range - 108 meters 7.2 hallways
- Medium Range - 180 meters 12 hallways
- Long Range - 1080 meters 72 hallways
- Ultra Range - 7200 meters 480 hallways
One hallway is 15 meters.
If two players are using different ranges on the Radio, the range the two can communicate will be the range of whatever range is the best between them. (i.e. A player with Radio set to Short Range can still communicate with players on Medium Range who are more than 108 meters away but less than 180 meters)
Power Usage
The Radio has a limited and short battery life that it uses up over time before dying. The power usages depends on range and if the radio is idle or currently being used to broadcast. Receiving a message does not deplete the battery faster. The Radio has a battery life of 200 units.
| Range | Idle | Talking | Total Idle Time | Total Talk Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short | 0.5 units per minute | 40 units per minute | 400 minutes | 5 minutes |
| Medium | 1.2 units per minute | 60 units per minute | 166.67 minutes | 3.33 minutes |
| Long | 4.5 units per minute | 120 units per minute | 44.44 minutes | 1.67 minutes |
| Ultra | 13.5 units per minute | 240 units per minute | 14.81 minutes | 0.83 minutes |
