Contacts with the jobs

The Quasar Smartphone includes a mandatory duty system for jobs and workers. Workers need to be on duty to receive and use their job-related features within the phone. Without this, they cannot access their job powers. We have the following types of contact per job:

1

Contact workers via call

In the Contact app, you can call a job, and a random worker on duty will answer.

2

Contact via Message app

You can send a message to a specific job by finding its contact in the Contacts app.

3

Contact via Business app

You can also communicate with workers in the best way by using the Business app, which sends them a dispatch.

How the Duty System works

The duty system prevents excessive spam by ensuring that only workers on duty can receive job-related messages and calls. To go on duty, workers need to activate the function using a specific command. For example, police officers can use the /911 command to go on duty and start receiving calls.

Worker commands configuration

Commands for each job are set up in config.lua, where you assign a number for each job that will appear when they are called.

Config.jobCommands = { 
    ['police'] = '112',
    ['ambulance'] = '113',
    ['mechanic'] = '114',
}

Worker Calls and Messages

Workers can receive calls and messages but cannot respond directly via chat. Instead, they can double-click the received message to view the sender's phone number and call or message them back.

The config.lua file allows you to set up job-specific contacts that will automatically appear in the phone’s call application. These contacts cannot be deleted unless modified in the configuration file.

Config.Jobs = {
    { job = 'police',    name = 'Policia',  img = './img/apps/police.png' },
    { job = 'ambulance', name = 'Ems',      img = './img/apps/ambulance.png' },
    { job = 'mechanic',  name = 'Mechanic', img = './img/apps/mechanic.png' },
}

Messaging system

Players can send text messages to job contacts added in config.lua, but workers cannot reply directly. To respond, workers double-click the received message, which shows the sender’s phone number for direct communication.
