I set the channel to my root channel and tell it to whisper sub channels only. Then I set it to on send to a certain group my officer group. This seems to work for me, but if there was another solution I'd love to hear it.

Would you mind sketching the UI on paper?
I'm afraid of breaking compatibility. My experience with that feature in ProjectReality is quite good, except for that it was impossible to attenuate certain "channels" or whisper lists actually. This needs at least some additional settings UI where you set keys to switch presets containing those channel priorities. If I were designing the UI, I'd add an item to the context menu when you right-click on a channel, called "Listen to channel":.
The server should only allow you to do this if you have ACL listen permissions. The server should kick you out of the channel if permissions are changed and you no longer have listen permissions. There should be a server setting to limit the number of channels one person can listen to, so that they can't DOS the server by joining all the channels.
While you are listening to a channel, your name is displayed in that channel in italics with an ear next to it, to indicate to people in that channel that you are listening:. This is important because people always need to know who is listening to them, so they don't say things that they want to keep private! If you want to stop listening to a channel, you right click on it, and the context menu item now says "Stop Listening":. If you want to talk to that channel, you bind a key to shout to that channel.
Your normal push-to-talk button talks to the channel that you joined normally. This also interacts with the overlay system, if someone talks in a channel you are listening to it should show up in the overlay with a label showing which channel you are hearing it from. The note about needing to hear certain channels louder than others is a valid one.
The best thing I can think of is:. Add an option, "dim" to the context menu when you right click a channel. Make it possible to bind a keyboard shortcut to toggle dimming a channel.
Dimming a channel makes it quieter. Add an option to the audio options menu, "dim amount", where you can set an amount, in dB, that you want dimmed channels to be quieter by.
I would suggest that further discussion on that feature go in a new feature request, if listening to multiple channels is ever implemented. What about the concept of a "meta channel" for lack of a better word , a special channel type which acts as a "shout target list". Joining or subscribing to that channel requires you to assign a hotkey for it. Those channels would act as "engineers channel", "commanders channel" etc. That also means that all the users in that channel would have their names in italics I'm still trying to think of an implementation which uses the existing "shout to channel" functionality so it's less likely to break compatibility with older versions and less code to touch :.
Edit: I think that requires to have channels having an additional flag "isMetaChannel" which existing servers don't understand.
Having the need of rolling out an update to 1. I won't get rude on this, but you can also simply Link channels and get the ACL out 'speak' deny on the opposite channel. Or you can put that rule on all channels and get a whisper to channel key. Like Solomute my background is also in the broadcast industry. I have been using Mumble for some time now as wireless intercom in a test environment. So I'm going to take the opportunity to air my thoughts on the subject of "simultaneously joining multiple channels", since it is the only real fundamental feature I'm missing in my use case.
I understand that big overhauls to G UI might upset current users and is not desirable. So I agree with Fahrradkette 's approach to implement an additional channel type. Like Solomute describes, the essential difference to an "ordinary" channel is:. Instead the user "listen" to the channel, thereby monitoring the activity in the channel. The user can chose to listen to one or many channels at the same time.
Audio of channels with the same or higher priority are not dimmed. This also implicates that the adjustment of audio level from each channel has to take place on the server see bullet point about audio level above.
I'm curious if someone could elaborate around the work on the server-side that would have to be done to accomplish this?
Based on my limited knowledge of the issues, I believe that having the server actually mix audio may not be desirable. This is not a huge deal in our business of show production where we probably run our own server on our own LAN, but the majority of mumble users are buying hosting by the slot from hosting providers on the internet so their needs and the needs of hosting providers are probably most important. Lets say that two different users are talking at the same time in the same channel, then the rest of the users in that channel will hear both of them mixed.
So as far as I can understand input mixing must already take place server-side. It should be possible to achieve the necessary output mixing by the same means. As you say it would add to CPU load. But the only other approach that I can come to think of, is sending a stream of every channel that the user has chosen to monitor. In your opinion, would the increase in network load this will cause, not only server-side but also client-side, be a negligible problem compared to increased CPU load at the server?
I did a quick and dirty survey of a few commercially available systems for telecom, military and broadcast. But then again, most of them have big hardware budgets and don't have to rely on hosting providers. Is anybody finally working on this feature request? There is still public demand for the feature. I would like to see it exactly as described by Solomute.
Thanks for your proposal mate! I would also like to see it exactly as described by Solomute. It would be great to get this because Mumble is becoming more and more common in broadcast TV production. For all I know, there is currently noone working on this feature.
We are a very small Dev-Team currently only 2 active devs. And I guess there have been more pressing issues that had to be dealt with. I am encouraging anyone willing to contribute to give this a shot though. Simply open a PR or get in touch with us via the official IRC channel preferrably through Matrix and we'll try our best to guide you through the contribution :. I might be able to take a crack at this; do any of the current devs have an outline for what parts of the code would need to change?
You take control of Star-Lord, as I mentioned earlier, and unload an endless stream of photon beams at all the toothy beasties, corrupt interplanetary cops, and deranged cult leaders that stand in your way. A bar on the left side of the screen fills up as the player deals damage, punctuated with Marvel-fied versions of those vintage Devil May Cry descriptors—"Marvelous! I could ask Groot to bind my enemies to the floor with his roots, or summon up Drax for an earth-shattering ground pound.
But outside of those instances, your fellow superheroes are relegated to the nameless faces that tend to populate Call of Duty levels, offering the faint image of warfighting solidarity, without actually doing anything all that productive. It gets the job done.
The combat isn't where Guardians of the Galaxy shines, but it is both flashy enough and simple enough to sustain some of the more active portions of the plot. I found that the villain-fighting got more engaging the closer I came to the game's conclusion. In the beginning, armed with only a pair of pea-shooters and a handful of basic attacks, Guardians is a shooting gallery with no pulse.
But when you're popping off multiple cooldowns at once and enjoying a fully optimized arsenal, the design gets close to that overwhelming, splash-panel, polychromatic eye candy that is so often prioritized in the films. Lasers, bombs, swords, and Drax flying in off the top rope like a punishing Marvel vs Capcom assist.
One of the best features in Guardians of the Galaxy is its "Huddle Up" function. Every once in a while you can call the team together, offer some words of encouragement, and re-enter the fray with a damage buff cued to a pulpy '80s classic pulled from the game's trove of licensed material.
The story here is centered around the usual universe-threatening Marvel disaster. There's some sort of hyper-religious stellar church corrupting the minds of the Andromeda Galaxy. Our motley crew is here to stop it, even as the odds continue to pile up against us. The Guardians might be a roving batch of greedy malcontents, but at least they've got a heart of gold.
The broad-strokes didn't interest me much, but Guardians does a good job integrating the uber-high stakes into the cloistered anxieties of the heroes themselves. One of the cult's first victims? A girl who may or may not be Star-Lord's illegitimate child. How could a bunch of daffy venerated nerds ever seduce a chiseled meathead like Drax?
Maybe by introducing the memories of his dead wife and daughter. All of this is buttressed by Guardians' moral choice infrastructure, which is clearly ripped directly from the Telltale convention.
Along the way, Star-Lord has a hand in shaping the team's plans and posture, which have a light impact on the narrative. In the interstitial periods between missions, you can chop it up with the team on the ship, akin to those elliptical therapy sessions hosted by Commander Shepard on the Normandy.
The writers here are clearly bound by Marvel orthodoxy, but it was still cool to see some of their own flourishes. Gamora, for instance, is a huge action figure collector in this timeline. I should reiterate again that Guardians of the Galaxy is very much singleplayer and plot-focused.
