Suggestion Landline & Payphones

[Nezoose]

Self-explaining title.

In V2 we had access to landline phones, since I've gotten access to the tests of V3, I've searched but haven't been able to find landlines again. This may just be an oversight on my part, or it could be a removal that I wasn't aware of.

I'll not spill every detail on why access to payphones and landlines could help roleplay. We're in an early occupation setting, it's still very much possible that phone lines still exist, and with changes to certain factions and radios, phones could be a great addition.

Perhaps payphones can cost credits depending on time? Perhaps they can have a scripted break, that Workers Union can fix? Either or, others can comment their additional suggestions.

Yes to mobile phones but they should only have a call/text function IC, no games no camera. Landline is mostly useless because people don't want to sit at their desk all day and meeting everyone in person all the time is unrealistic.

Pager, but with just a notification that someone has called you.

Pagers but with number codes only please. Then people can create their own meanings from the numbers.

Brick phones would be an absolute gem.
