Vivox provides group text and voice communications through channels. Users can communicate with each other by joining the same channel.
Channels support the following functionality:
- Voice
- Voice rendered with 3D effects (positional/directional audio)
- Text
- Muting a user for oneself
- Muting a user for all users in the channel
- Forced removal of a user from a channel (“kick”)
Channels have the following characteristics:
- Channels are identified by channel IDs.
- Channel IDs are assigned by the game.
- Channels are platform agnostic - game clients running on different platforms interoperate with each other.
- Channels are created on demand, and inactive channels consume no Vivox resources.
