It would also be good to have the 911 command have an option to send it through chat with a message from the caller. (i.e. /call 911 Mugging_by_McDonalds would send a cage headache with "[username] has reported "Mugging at McDonalds"") This would be helpful if the server has actual police.

Also, since the mod will be obviously incompatible with chat mods, I suggest basing it off of DesoChat instead of just local chat and adding more prefs so that players can customize it for their needs rather then only being able to have the most basic local chat mod with cell phones.

Clearly it's a lot to ask for so I don't expect you to try to make all of this, but you should consider each suggestion.


Great idea, I remember wishing for this back when cell phone mod was popular.

This is almost EXACTLY the cellphone mod. Also i'm pretty sure the cellphone mod is in the archive

You either didn't read the OP or didn't use call phone mod

[Dannu]

I read the OP and used the call mod. In the old call mod, you can call people with /call 1800555*BLID*, you can accept or reject call with /call accept or /call end. /call end is also used to end the current call. The only unique feature i was able to read out of the OP was that players near you can hear your end of the phone call and local chat (The stupidest feature yet) I'm guessing to do this, you are just stealing code from cellphone mod and RP Chat mod, but that's just my opinion. The cellphone mod exists, the RP Chat exists, we do not need this.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

@Dannu I completely see where you're coming from, although I can assure that (as I stated in the actual post):

"My intention is to re-make this mod from the ground up"

I will not be using any previously written code, as that is considered plagiarism. All of the functionality will be implemented as part of a larger project to give added functionality, not to function as its own separate mod. Technically speaking, yes, I could just make the larger project by itself and just use the pre-existing LocalChat and CellPhone mods. But think of the compatibility issues of trying to implement separate mods into gameplay, mods that more than likely will conflict with each other and therefore detract from the overall gameplay experience. My plan is to create a self-sustaining mod that will have all of its own functionality built into it, without relying on outside mods to create a better experience.

EDIT: And just to prevent any further confusion, the mod will not be called "CellPhone" mod.
