Retro pager for ESX, QBCore and standalone — with radio tower reception, battery drain and dispatch integration.
Communication via 6-digit pager IDs instead of phone numbers. Being reachable requires radio coverage and a charged battery. Sending a message becomes a decision again.
📱 A Device, Not a Menu
LCD with scanlines, glass reflection and status LED, physical buttons, matching phone animation with prop.
🎨 4 Color Themes · 3 Sizes
Every player picks their own look. Theme, size, language and sound live in the client KVP instead of the database — no extra load on your server.
✨ Highlights
📡 11 Radio Towers with Real Coverage
Signal bars depend on where the player stands — from full bars to no reception at all.
Towers go down at random, tear a hole into the map and have to be repaired on site: randomly rolled materials plus a 3-round minigame, followed by a reward in money and/or items.
Outages survive server restarts.
🔌 Dispatch via Export
Any other resource can send an incident straight to the pagers of a faction through a server-side export — robberies, alarm systems, vehicle crafting, emergency call NPCs.
The location can come from the triggering player, be fixed, or be omitted.
Not callable from the client, therefore not spoofable.
🔋 Battery System
Configurable drain per minute, low battery warning, black screen at 0 %.
Recharging consumes an item and can optionally return an empty battery. The charge level is stored in the database.
🧩 ESX, QBCore or standalone
One switch in the config — or `auto`, which lets the system detect the framework
itself. Without a framework everything works except the faction assignment; job,
money and inventory can be wired up through documented hooks.
📲 Apps
| App | Function |
|---|---|
| SMS | Direct messages from ID to ID, full history, unread counter, live delivery |
| Share location | Attach a position including street name; the recipient gets a GPS route that clears itself on arrival |
| Contacts | Turn IDs into names — add, edit, delete |
| Service | Citizens send requests to freely configurable factions |
| Dispatch | Faction view of all requests including replies, live for every colleague on duty |
| Bulletin board | Public listings with categories and a direct button to message the author |
| Notes | Private notes with heading and text |
Messages sent to a player without reception are stored and delivered automatically once they are back in coverage.
Dispatch can optionally work without reception as well.
🛠️ For Server Owners
⚙️ One Config File
Item requirement, hotkey, ID length, factions, radio tower locations and radii, repair pool, rewards, battery values, limits, admin groups, animation.
🗄️ Automatic Database
All 7 tables are created on the first start, including migrations. No import required.
🔔 Notifications
Notifications in the pager look, via ESX, via ox_lib or through your own notify function, at 8 screen positions.
🌍 Fully Bilingual
EN / DE — every interface text, not just system messages. Additional languages are a single file. Players choose for themselves.
🛡️ Admin Tools
Take a specific tower offline, repair all, list the status in the console. A debug mode draws every coverage radius on the map.
🚀 Server-Friendly
Theme, size, language and sound live in the client KVP instead of the database.
