[mod] Walkie Talkie Waypoints [walkie]

Description: Use walkie talkies to display waypoints.
License: GPL3
Originates from srifqi's shout mod

Source on GitHub or master.zip
The name of the mod's folder should not contain any hyphen! Make sure to omit -master if it exists.

Details: The core of this mod actually limits chat shout distance (code by srifqi). The walkies make it so far away players can communicate. Currently waypoints are being added so you can see where they are. In the process of making an intercomm station as a stationary node waypoint, I ended up with a fun little "terminal" that could probably made into its own mod. Potentially showing server rules, or some other fun thing. Dropped items as waypoints will be added last.

Nice idea!
Could you explain all the functions of the intercomm?

It's technically not functional yet, because it doesn't list itself as a waypoint for the walkie talkie. I'm still mulling it over whether I want to nametag dropped items to make additional waypoints available (probably) as per your idea?

Major update: typing quit into it actually escapes the formspec now!
Also it's on GitHub now: github.com/everamzah/walkie
