Original Post — Direct link

The one reason I purchased the dlc was for the custom radio stations, I made my own a few days prior in preparation only to find out they’ve made it an admin only command i plead with the devs to revert this and give us our music!

Scammed is a strong word, I do not feel we've misled anyone. What is shown on Staging at early stages often changes and we've never officially said in any form we'd support the feature at release.

Going forward I'll have to think carefully about giving creators early previews.

Copy and paste below:

The DLC does allow internet radio streams but only from a prepicked list. Servers owners can add to this list and we'll likely add more in future.

We've never advertised this feature, it was on Staging for a short period of time for testing. The reason for the removal of the player-defined list was upon review and as pointed out by multiple community members it would leak all IP addresses of players within range of the radio (MITM) which opens it up to the abuse of players getting DOS'ed and had multiple other exploit vectors.

While these vectors can be fixed we'd have to masks everything, which breaks most radio stations ToS and we'd be streaming music ourselves which is a big no, and we're definitely not going to do that, we're not Spotify.

In short - It be cool to have, but for your safety, we're not and never will. If you've bought it purely for this functionally please do the refund.
