Overview

This is a new feature introduced along with the new agents and new radio commands. It might get patched, but for not you can use it as much as you want.

Limitations

This is a radio option colored text, meaning it will be visible to your team mates only.
You can use it 3 times in a row, then there is around 10-15 seconds cooldown time.
Because it uses special ASCII characters "0x0F" it cannot be bind to a key. You have to copy/paste it each time.

Color codes

(!) I will provide pastebin.com link below as characters can not be pasted on steam guide.

Copy the special characters only from the url above.

How to use it in-game

Enable console ingame (~)
Join offline game or some server
In console write the following command: playerradio 1 "This is a test"
If you see a chat message with (RADIO): This is a test, your test has successfully passed.
Now, to use a color you have to paste inside double quotes "" the special color code character from color codes section.
Go to next section to see examples.
