Replay messages...

[rrohde]

Would love to see this added to DCS:

 

A replay function that allows you to replay the last message that was either narrated or given in text format. Some "Come again?" button or option inside the already existing Comms menu would be great.

 

When selecting "Come again?", the previous message is repeated on screen and/or narrated again.

 

To me, this would be very useful, especially during busy campaign (or training) missions where both spoken and text-based info is easily missed...

 

(For text-only information, maybe a scrollable "history" panel could be opened as well...?)

100% agree

 

and a "Say again" option on the radio menu would be completely realistic as well.

 

Come to think of it - can't you already do this with warning mssages from Betty in the Ka-50? So should already pretty much have the code available, too.

Even though I rarely play singleplayer, so I almost never have to deal with the radio menu, it makes a lot of sense to have it included. +1

Great suggestions. We have been asking for this for a long time.

Or simply a buffer log that you can toggle and read every text with its timestamp.

Wow yea that will be great +1

[FishDoctor]

I would like to see that in DCS too.

+1 for upgrade to comms interaction. VR pilots especially suffer from not being able to write things down for recall let alone having the ability to read their chicken scratch withoput peeking under goggles.

 

Highly suggest folks read https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=203064 in VR input forum.

Try to add a POLL to your original post.

+1 Very handy (either a history of messages and/or a 'say again' option)

There is a way, but the mission creator has to implement it. In my mission I currently work on, I have an F10 option to review all active mission objectives with a separate little voice over ("Your mission is to do yadda yadda"..). Just as a workaround ;)

[SnowTiger]

I would definitely like to see this implemented ASAP.

Since the suggestion was made 2 years ago, it would be great if ED were to give this the thumbs up and implement it for us immediately. Surely it cannot be that difficult to do can it ?

"Say Again"

[SharpeXB]

Yes this would be really helpful. I have made the habit of taking screen pictures with my iPad whenever there are coordinates given etc.

[SnowTiger]

Another similar option would be to "stack" the messages until we "clear" the stack with a key press or something (similar to turning Chat On/Off).

 

I think this function should be available for aircraft messages (i.e. AWACS) and Mission Voice Messages that are shown in the top right of the screen. If the function to view them is on, we should have the option to leave them on the screen until we want to clear them, not be bound by the time specified by the mission author (which may only be 5 or 10 seconds).

Very useful in VR

[Demongornot]

Best suggestion ever in DCS !

Just after the old suggestion for a clickable MI-8 cockpit fan of course :lol:

 

Seriously, this + ability to scroll up and down the chat would be just perfect !

I apologize for resurrecting this thread from the long dead, but it this still a "wish list" item that has never been done, or is there now some way to do it that I've not yet found?  Seems to me like a no-brainer, there's a reason the phrase "Say Again..." exists.

Wish granted by ED last january:

 

"Ingame UI. Added Messages History function for radio messages and texts."
