[SUGGESTION] Phones

Well hello there. I Have thought of a suggestion, Phones. You can buy them from a "Phone Dealer"/Technician, this is suppose to replace the camera tool.
The command !p Will not work, the last phone will have all its things into the newer one, but with more things. The worse to best starts of as,

'point' - Crappy Phone - The old camera model - cell phone, to message people with !p and Call people, can take pictures of up to 3X Camera zoom.

'point' - Phone - An old touchscreen phone, Can do all of the above, have a 5X Camera zoom, and could play Tetris (Or something like that) And can record.

'point' - Mobile Phone - A BlackBerry sort of phone, Can do all the above have a 7X Camera zoom, can play another 2 basic games, and can listen unto conversations of up to 10 metres away.

'point' - Pocket Phone - A Large wide-screen sort of "tablet", can do all of the above, have a 10X Camera Zoom, can play "tons" of games and listen unto conversations of upto 17 metres away, and can be customized via Technician-cases.

The prices will go as..

Crappy Phone - 500$ - rough estimate.

Phone - 2000$ - also rough estimate.

Mobile Phone - 5000$ - Very rough estimate,

Pocket Phone - 7500$ - Seems about right for a phone thing.


This is just a suggestion, so make changes if you wish, But dont yell at me! It (again) is just a suggestion. Comment your thoughts, good points and bad.

Include in your comment +1 If you think it is good.
Include in your comment -1 If you think it is bad.

Enjoy and think hard! >

would be great for mic users .. but are we able to get it?

Hmm it would be cool to have a job selling hardware like phones, but a problem with your suggestion is the thing about hearing conversations far away. It's OP and sort of metagaming. I doubt you can do that with normal phones in real life. The zoom ability is already in the standard camera in the game, on your suit zoom ability aswell.
Also, you'd have to find someone who would code all this stuff for free. And we need phone models. So no way this is getting added, sorry.

And the !p message thing is from ULX and not RP related (OOC), so that wouldn't be a good idea.
If the phone concept could be changed a bit it would be a possibility.

Worth a try, just a midnight's dreams idea. well happy you at least had a look.

This is actually a pretty good idea, I've seen phones being used on PERP before although it was just one phone you could buy. No games or anything. All that might be a bit hard to code unless something was found.

-1 As a coder myself, it would be extremely hard to code unless you payed some genius one thousand pounds. Where could we get them from? How could we restrict pre-made ones to restrict certain things? Sorry, it's a no for me.

Pm works :3

Indeed xD

Broken down into points:

1) Limiting voice chat to be heard by 1 person
2) limited camera zoom
3) recording
4) gui with phone number
5) text message (pm)
6) games

1 can do
2 can do
3 possible but unlikely
4 cannot do (the gui bit could do the number bit)
5 can do
6 cannot do

There used to be a phone module for darkrp. I remember some dicks using it against me in csrp to find me when I was hiding in hobo town. They killed me. Might even still be in there.
