Module B7 · Production patterns

Voice scripting: proximity, channels, and radio

The setup lesson got voice working as config. This one is the scripting side. You will learn the two ways FiveM moves a player's voice: proximity, where range falls off with distance, and channels, where everyone tuned to the same channel hears each other across the whole map. By the end you will own a /proximity setter and a /radio toggle, and you will be able to read every mumble native the channel system is built from.

You'll build: A client resource with a /proximity command that sets how far your voice carries, and a /radio command that toggles a voice channel so everyone on it hears you regardless of distance.
Time: ~24 minutes
You need: A running server with a voice resource active (pma-voice is the common modern choice) or the built-in mumble system, plus a second player to test with. If voice is not installed yet, do the Voice setup and troubleshooting lesson first.
You'll learn: The proximity-vs-channel model -> MumbleSetTalkerProximity -> MumbleSetVoiceChannel and NetworkClearVoiceChannel -> MumbleSetAudioInputDistance -> submixes for radio effects, line by line
