Simply put this in the activation field of a trigger:
<x> SetRadioMsg "<text>"
The radio command can only be selected if it is activated in this way. You can disactivate it with
<x> SetRadioMsg "null"

try this RED

make a trigger the size of the area were U want it active, not press F2 ( group ) and drag from the trigger to the leader, or the character U will be using ( a blue line should appear), and make it REPEAT ,then in ON ACT field type

RADIO = 1

now make a general trigger ( both axis 0 )

activated RADIO ALPHA
once or repeated
in the INIT field type RADIO == 1


like this it should work, and U will have your radio activated when U r in the area U made.

EXTRA: if U want to be sure that the radio call worked, in the ON ACT field of the 2nd trigger ( the one with RADIO ALPHA ) type

hint " Radio contact made "

this should give U a hint that the radio worked.

BTW, when U start the game the radio will show anyway but it will be ineffective.

hey spinor wot do u mean <x> and "<text>"?
<x> doesn't stand for anything and u can't use it
"text" won't activate cuz i apparently aint gotta number in there.
