User Specific Audio Without Muting

(#1096) Feature Declined voice

Problem

In games such as Phasmaphobia, Among Us, and Trouble in Terrorist Town, it is important to keep the player's state of life a mystery, whereas the mute icon makes this obvious.

Proposed solution

As many players rely on Fluxer to communicate during these games and to share their gameplay with spectators, I propose a feature within Fluxer that allows specifying which users can hear specific users without showing a mute icon next to them. A feature such as this would allow bots to integrate with addons made for games (e.g., a mod for Phasmaphobia or Among Us, an addon for Garry's Mod, etc.) to funnel specific listening sub-voice-channels that are invisible so that spectators can hear all players, and living players can only hear other living players.

Notes (optional)

Please note that I do not mean to imply that Fluxer should handle the specific game interactions; I am merely suggesting this as a feature so that developers of games and bots can utilize this for their own integrations.

Status changed from Shipped to Declined
Marked declined because staff said this would probably not be added natively, so shipped was wrong.
