Radio Transmission bug

[Flappie]

In all eight Flaming Cliffs 3 aircraft, the player can hear any AM radio transmission emitting in range 99.999 MHz-400.001 MHz. I'm assuming it's a bug, not a feature.

 

This happens 100% of the time, both in solo and multiplayer sessions, on current release version ( 2.5.6.49798 ).

 

Mission attached (the beacon will emit 3 seconds after mission starts).

@Flappie

Is there any info regarding this issue?

Not only this but they also receive ARK-UD frequencies for example 114.166MHz which those radios in FC3 aircraft couldn't even tune into so only work around now is to lower/disable helmet volume but you will lose voice warnings and awacs callouts

 

It's hard to make a search and rescue mission with FC3 aircrafts around without pilots in them losing their mind or disabling helmet volume which is not a fix but a very bad workaround.

@XPACT Wow, I had completely forgotten this bug. Thanks for bringing it back to my memory. I'll ask about it right away.

This is a feature. We have specially provided the FС planes with ultra-broadband radio.

In that case FC planes need at least a keybind to turn radio receive completely off or radio volume control whatever is easier to implement from those, because as I said earlier it interferes with missions where you have constant or multiple transmissions. 

Only way to workaround it currently is reducing helmet volume in sound options but that is such a bad workaround that I wouldn't even call it one.
