    Notes
     So the ability to drop a note is pretty self explanatory. but ill explain anyways. I know for a fact being able to drop notes for people to read could help roleplay and give people more ways to do things in secret.  The note could drop just like a item just have it reveal a text on the screen when you use it. So if someone finds the note they can take it and keep it with them for evidence. 

    Special Phone Locations
    I saw a public server had the ability to call the Police stations front desk, also payphones, im not sure how the coding works for that or how long it would take but i imagine giving the Locations a phone number just like a player and give all players access to answer the phone. Crims would be able to give a phone number to someone or even have them go to a location and wait for the phone to ring, All businesses could have a special phone number. 

    Both methods 
    Both ideas gives us more routes to create roleplay in the shadows. not everyone wants to do things by word of mouth. We could have more unknown groups running the city if done correctly and really create a more immersive experience

    Adding notes would add a whole world of RP to the server and can make certain situations a lot better, Even just giving your number out to one person would be better just by dropping a note for them. 
    Payphones would also be an appreciated addition!

    Ive been wanting to drop notes for so long. but i also understand that it would cause issues if a lot of them were left around

    Alright so i brought this suggestion up to Nardah while he was streaming, his response was something along the lines of "that would be cool, but it would mean an entire inventory rewrite" or something similar to that meaning if this was to become a thing they would have to re do the entire inventory system that we currently have. @cacalac1

    I think that would be awesome, there was a problem last night on one of the cities where someone had dropped like SOOO many dildo's and blow up dolls and adult magazines. It was killing the city lol.

     

    I think these ideas would be great, I also would LOVE to have the ability to have a notepad that can pull out when you do /e note.

    Understandable, it just sucks because right now. other then the dark chat, we have no way of giving someone a name or number without talking to someone. i like the hidden approach myself. but if the code takes a full rewrite then maybe its not worth it just for a note.

    I wonder if Nardah was thinking like a permanent note that can be stored in your inventory cause then making the note only be available to pick up for like 5 min and then if you pick it up once you get rid of it on your screen then its gone forever unless you pick up that note again in the 5 minute window. Unless this will still require a full rework....

    Its hard for us to know due to not seeing his code. there's always a walk around but how far does he need to walk just for a note is the problem, it would help rp but not sure if its worth 24 hours of coding
