Create a custom radio channel with the given color, label, call sign and registered characters. The index returned can be used to manipulate the created channel later. There are 10 slots for custom radio channels which would correspond to channels 6-15 (see getPlayerChannel). The command will find an unused index in this range and create it when found. Server only.

Syntax:

Parameters:
[color, label, callSign, units, sentenceType]: Array
color: Array - RGBA color values
label: String - label

units: Array - list of units in the channel
sentenceType (Optional): Boolean (Default: true)
Return Value:
Number - created channel ID (used in customChat command), 0 if failed

Examples

Example 1:
_index = radioChannelCreate [[0.96, 0.34, 0.13, 0.8], "Q-dance Radio", "%UNIT_NAME", [player1, player2]];
Example 2:

Example 3:
Create custom channel and add all players to it, present and JIP:if (isServer) then { private _channelName = "Q-dance Radio"; private _channelID = radioChannelCreate [[0.96, 0.34, 0.13, 0.8], _channelName, "%UNIT_NAME", []]; if (_channelID == 0) exitWith {diag_log format ["Custom channel '%1' creation failed!", _channelName]}; [_channelID, {_this radioChannelAdd [player]}] remoteExec ["call", [0, -2] select isDedicated, _channelName]; };

Make sure you add all units you intend to speak or receive messages on created custom channel to the channel.

WARNING: Be aware that created channels order and count are different between server and client. Example 3 shown that server-side channel ID is actually 4, while client currentChannel on the same channel results in 9. Behaviour is yet unknown for me.
