Plugin “SRS”

SimpleRadioStandalone (DCS-SRS) is a radio solution for DCS World.
If you want to use SRS in DCSServerBot, in most cases it is enough to activate the respective extension. Especially when it comes to LotAtc, or, if you want to display an SRS activity status for your players, or if you even want to use slot blocking based on SRS - then you want to install this plugin.

Configuration

As SRS is an optional plugin, you need to activate it in main.yaml first like so:

opt_plugins:
  - srs

If you want to use the slot blocking feature, you need to create a config/plugins/srs.yaml file like so:

DEFAULT:
  message_no_srs: You need to use SRS to play on this server!
  enforce_srs: true   # Block slots until SRS is activated. People cannot use slots if not on SRS!
  move_to_spec: true  # Move people back to spectators if they leave SRS (only if enforce is true, default: false)
  enforce_atc: true   # Enforce ATC frequencies for SRS users (default: false)
  atis: true          # Optional: Send ATIS messages to players
  atc_frequencies:    # Optional: default is airbase frequencies, according to the mission
    blue:
      'CVN*': 252000AM
      '*': 251000AM
    red:
      'CVN*': 125000AM
      '*': 124000AM

[!NOTE] The enforce_atc option will create an event “noATCUsage” which can then be used in the Punishment plugin to punish based on violations.

Discord Commands

The following Discord commands are available through the SRS plugin:

Command	Parameter	Channel	Role	Description
/srs list		all	DCS	Shows active users on SRS with their connected radios.
/srs tts	server text [player] [coalition]	all	DCS Admin	Send a TTS message to a specific frequency. Chose coalition or player to limit the frequencies.
/srs update	server	all	DCS Admin	Updates SRS on the respective node.
/srs repair	server	all	DCS Admin	Repairs (re-installs) SRS on the respective node.

Mission-Scripting - Text To Speech

If you want to use TTS (text-to-speech) in your mission, you can do it like so:

if dcsbot then
    local message = "Test"
    local frequency = 243.0
    local coalition = 1 -- red
    local volume = 1.0
    local point = Airbase.getByName("Kutaisi"):getPoint()
    dcsbot.send_tts(message, frequency, coalition, volume, point)
end
