Join a director notes channel

Reviewed

An out-of-character channel for the people running the scene.

Any logged-in player can join by typing the same channel name as somebody else.

In the menus: ESC → Direct → Director Notes

Join a channel

Type the name into Channel: and select JOIN, or run the command:

Everyone already there is told by name.

One channel at a time: joining a second leaves the first.

The MEMBERS list is everyone on the channel right now.

SCRIPT opens the scene script.

Post a note

Typing /dn <message> or /dc <message> into ordinary chat posts the same way.

Joining takes your team chat key with it. While you are on a channel, that team chat key posts to the channel instead of to team chat.

To keep the channel and take your team chat key back, untick T key posts here in the menu or run /directornotes tkey 0.

/dn and /say_director still post.

Leave a channel

LEAVE, or /directornotes none. The members are told, and the channel also drops when you log out or disconnect.

Things to note

  • Channel members see through a held fade. It covers the world at 65% opacity, as it does in director mode. Fade the screen shows what everyone else sees.
  • Vehicles use at least level 2 handling while you are on a channel. Your bought level 3 still applies. Spend XP on skills explains what Vehicles buys.
  • The channel follows you across a map change.
