Radio chatter/noise like in the DP Mod 1.0

i was wondering how you make radio chatter/noise like in the DP Mod 1.0, im not trying to rip them off, or anything, i was poking around the DP Mod 1.0 trying to find it, the only thing i could figure is it was in the sounds.ini, but just not sure, i dont wanna just copy theres into what im making, but i like the radio chatter, adds a nice touch.

You get radio chatter in vanilla FL anyway...

If you want to increase the amount of chatter an easy way is to open Data/constants.ini and change the "CHATTER_MAX_DIST" line to a higher number, so you hear the chatter from a greater area.

Yeah, check the constants.ini file for that. I think you can increase the maximum distance away from a base that you can hear it (it's called "wallah" in FL files). So, yes, do as Accushot says, change that value of any of these to get some different radio chatter:

[CommConsts
COMM_PLAYER_FAR_DIST=
COMM_PLAYER_FAR_DIST_ATTEN=
CHATTER_MAX_DIST=
CHATTER_MAX_DIST_ATTEN=
CHATTER_START_ATTEN=
COMM_CONFLICT_PRIORITY_CUTOFF=
WALLA_MAX_DIST=
WALLA_MAX_DIST_ATTEN=
WALLA_START_ATTEN=
WALLA_PRIORITY_CUTOFF=
