Car Radio

Brings fully functional radios to cars! Just click a vehicle to turn the radio on/off, change the station, skip tracks, or adjust the volume.

Features:

- Works exactly like regular in-game stereos.
- NPCs will turn on the radio while driving and play their favorite genres! (The chance of this happening is tunable).
- Service vehicles (police, ambulances, ice cream trucks, etc.) don't get radios by default. You can edit this list.
- All text is pulled directly from the game, meaning it's automatically translated into all languages.

Compatibility:

- It's a lightweight script mod. It doesn't override any core game files or write to your save file, so it's 100% safe to add or remove anytime.

XML Tuning (via s3pe):

- kAutonomyChance: The chance (in %) that another Sim will turn on the radio. Default: 60.
- kAutonomyPollMinutes: How often (in Sim minutes) the game checks for autonomy. Default: 1.
- kRadioMasterGain: Radio volume. Default: 0.7.
- kExcludedVehicleKeywords: A blacklist for vehicles (by class name) that shouldn't have radios. Default includes: Service,Police,Fire,IceCream,FoodTruck,Carpool,Limo,MovingVan,BusSchool,Siren,Repoman,MaidVan,Ambulance.
- kRadioMenuLabel: Fallback text for the pie menu. It auto-translates, but you can type in your own custom text here if you want.

Install:

- Just drop CarRadio.package into your Mods/Packages folder. Done!

I highly recommend using this alongside "Realistically Slower Cars, Taxis, and Bikes" mod. It makes car rides last a bit longer so you can actually sit back and enjoy the music on your trip!
