<cat>Code.Player</cat> The Voice API allows the developer to change various properties and behaviour of voice chat. # Usage ## OnVoicePlayed You can override the OnVoicePlayed() method in Sandbox.Game to control what happens when other clients' voice data is coming through. Note that OnVoicePlayed is not called for your own client - only other clients. ```csharp public override void OnVoicePlayed( Client cl ) { Log.Info( $"{cl.Name} is speaking!" ); VoiceList.Current?.OnVoicePlayed( cl.PlayerId, cl.VoiceLevel ); VoiceList.Current?.OnVoicePlayed( cl.SteamId, cl.VoiceLevel ); } ``` ## Voice UI ### Voice List By default, OnVoicePlayed populates a base UI component called VoiceList (base/UI/VoiceChat) as long as it exists in your game's UI (i.e adding `<VoiceList />` in a template or adding the class as a child in C#). By overriding OnVoicePlayed, you could customize what happens when a client hears voice however you choose. <upload src="ae247/8da967cb4a55ce0.png" size="160281" name="image.png" /> ### Voice Speaker VoiceSpeaker is another base UI component that shows when you are speaking instead of others. <upload src="ae247/8da967d59e05d0c.png" size="27376" name="image.png" /> ## Client Properties You can access various properties on a [client](https://asset.party/api/Sandbox.Client.TimeSinceLastVoice) pertaining to voice. These allow you to access the voice properties of any client in your game. ```csharp // VoiceStereo determines whether voice chat should be global or proximity-based. cl.VoiceStereo = false; ``` ## Sandbox.Voice [Sandbox.Voice](https://asset.party/api/Sandbox.Voice) allows you to access additional properties based on the local client's voice.
