Well look forward to seeing other mods like this in the future

well we already have the V-22

Thanks, corporal Adrian Shephard , I am glad that HECU is interested in the latest tech advancements.

Jokes aside, appreciate the comment. I hope to find more time in the future for modding

to think this is your first and only mod is really imppressive

Hi TAB_SILENCE , I guess you can call it that way too. Phones are mainly used for communication purposes, PDA is something akin to an electronic gadget for increasing your situational awareness (map, list of enemies, proximity sensor, etc)

OK is this literally just a phone? I mean, it's still cool, but is it just a Phone like that's what this is Tactical Phone??

Thanks DatcrazyTexan .
As far as your question goes, taking a photo is just a gimmick, it does not actually do anything. I did want to have some sort of an option to be able to take screenshots but it is simply not possible through the modding interface. The reason being that this requires the mod to interact with your PC file system and that is, basically, a security threat. At least it is my interpretation why Ravenscript does not allow anything remotely close to this

Hey Letzplayosaurus , I also have the muscle memory for "M" button to such an extent that it can collide a bit with the mod. Honestly, apart from going to "Settings" and somehow putting a blank for the "Map" button, there is no chance to get rid of the vanilla map, for now at least

So, first of all great mod tbh. But does the recording/picture taking actually do anything or is it just cosmetic?

kinda wish there was a way to disable the vanilla map and have it be replaced by the PDA for a more realistic pack

Hi Maulana Kaiser , that is an interesting idea for sure. I was thinking about something like that when I was designing the PDA. I do not have plans for implementing something like a pipboy right now. However, there might be a possibility to make a comeback with similar concept (like wrist mounted PDA in Beautiful light)

Will there be a pipboy version later?

Thanks Punk , I would say I was lucky be inspired by modding achievements of amazing people within RF (which are also mentioned in the description) and mods from other games

Such a cool fucking mod, so much love went into this project

Awesome, the only other problem i have is that the arrows keys don’t move the map, however that may be an incompatibility with another mod

Hi Pwrixon06 , good to hear that you like it. So what you say, to use it as a full replacement, is something that I initially wanted to do but there are basically modding limits. Yet, maybe Raven have added new functionality to the scripting language. I would say that the current state where you have the map and units is the best I could do for the time being. I am currently a bit busy IRL but I will try to look into it when I have more free time

Hey I really enjoy using this mod, however I want to use it as a complete replacement for the map. Would it be possible to add a function to see capture points or spec ops objectives?

another use for the camera is if you could turn the PDA to landscape mode whilst also using a gun, basically turning the PDA into an awesome scope that has a lot of zoom levels

Well, I just really have some buttons on the keyboard broken + various add-ons that use the keyboard in one way or another (for example, ARS or Improved Weapon Pickup) are included, so I try to remove conflicts in the key binding. And technically, the camera is useless, although I would suggest combining the functionality of the camera and EHADS-2, so that there would be a task to "take photos of the object" and then the camera would be useful in the PDA.

Thanks a lot for the constructive feedback and doing this small research . I will look into it on my behalf. Honestly, I did not think that "Functionalities" should have some way of turning them off completely, and that not all of them are always relevant

Non-existent keys are just a set of characters. And empty fields are naturally deleted by backspace. The most important thing in this bug is that if you have already deleted the key binding, and, for example, saved the mod in this form in the configuration, then you will have to create the configuration again if you need a PDA - the mod simply stops working almost completely. In any case, the "Player List" button remains the working key

Okay, that is an interesting one, thanks for finding that out! How do you assign non-existent keys? How do you leave empty fields?

No. I found what the problem is - the mutator stops working if you assign non-existent keys to it or leave an empty field (for example, I don't need a camera, and I can't just turn it off by changing the key to a non-working one)

Hi SCP-АЛЛО , are you on the beta branch by any chance? Have you tried subscribing and unsubscribing? I launched the game today and it seems to be working fine so far

For unknown reasons, the mod just stopped working, only the switch button on the player list works

That's a deal XinTrok (zFwzy) . Good hunting

take all my fucking rubles

CatsAreCool just be careful and dont step into an anomaly

We playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. with this one!!🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥

Thanks a lot, enjoy using your PDA

ok ODESSARAMBO, its a really cool mod btw

It's cool, no matter how long it takes, the main thing is that everything works out!

Thanks a lot EZIC , glad you liked it . Well, I have a few more ideas but I am still to allocate time to actually start working on them

Это потрясающе! Люблю аддоны на интересные гаджеты. Если планируется что то ещё, то подписываюсь.

KongePingvinen I can look into it, not promising though

could u ad like a thermal system

Random Dude ss13 = based

Okay thanks

Q by Sober : Is there a way to access the videos or pictures you take or or those all for show?
A: No, you cannot access photos or videos, it is a gimmick mechanic. To give a context, Ravenscript does not allow you to interact with the filesystem, i.e. to create or delete entities

Is there a way to access the videos or pictures you take or or those all for show?

Me on my way to grab a completely useless stash knowing damn well it's located in Pripyat and infested with Monolith and traumatising creatures

"seek fluid intake"

Real talk about Subnautica, I wish it would be possible to build bases in Ravenfield on the fly

subnautica?

Sorry Bruhhhhhh , I know that there a lot of functionalities in this mod and it might quickly become overwhelming. I suggest trying using them one at a time. For instance, start by using it as a map substitute. It will give you enough time to get familiar with the interface of the PDA (proximity sensor, CSE, HP bar, etc) Then, you might get interested who is exactly nearby and why is your CSE changes lights. By slowly adding these functionalities into the way you play, you might find that it all comes together

too confusing

ham sandwich , I would advise to unsubscribe and subscribe again. Sometimes the workshop interrogation is kind of buggy. It might also depend on how much other stuff you have installed.
P.s. I have just updated the mod, maybe it will help

switched versions, still didn't work
it also clearly says that the mod is installed on steam, but it doesn't show up in-game
