__TOC__

== Using a cellphone ==
* Type '''/call [number]''' to call another cellphone.
** Look at "Managing Devices" if you own more than one cellphone for a guide how to use multiple cellphones. 

* You must wait for the other person to answer the phone by typing '''/pickup'''
** Or simply type '''/hangup''' if you are tired of waiting or want to end the conversation. 

* Once the person you are calling picks up his phone, the server will automatically switch your chatmode to the phone conversation.
** This means anything you type on the chat window will be sent to the player you are talking to via cellphone. 

* You can also call public services:
** '''/call 911''' HELP! My car is on fire! ''(This will alert medics, firemans and cops)''.
** '''/call mechanic''' ''(This will alert all mechanics ingame)''.
** '''/call taxi''' ''(This will alert all taxi drivers in game)''. 

* Calling public services will automatically trace your location and cellphone number.

== Sending a text message ==
* Use '''/sms [number] [message]'''
** Example: /sms 9999 Hey there, how are you?

== Using an CB radio ==
* Type '''/joinchannel [channel number 2 - 30000)''' to turn your citizen band radio on.
** If you have more than one CB, you can use '''/joinchannel [channel number] [cb id]''' ''(use /invent to find the correct CB ID).'' 

* Use '''/cb [message]''' to talk in the citizen band radio channel.
** You can also use '''/chatmode [cb]''' to talk directly on the radio without using /cb.
** Check who is listening to this radio frequency by typing '''/cbusers'''. 

* In case you get bored of listening to people talking, you can turn it off by using '''/cboff [cb id]'''
** The '''/area''' command is available for CB radios. It allows you to track everyone in the same CB frequency.

== Managing devices ==
* Using '''/setdefault [phone or cb] [item id]''' will define which phone or CB the server will use for /call or /cb.
** Example: Type '''/invent''' 
:::  Money: 22033$  
:::  (0)Passport, (1)Cellphone: 3000, (2)Cellphone: 6000, (3)CB: 5, (4)CB: 333   

* '''Defining a default phone:'''
** By using '''/setdefault phone 2''' the server is going to use the cellphone with number 6000 for everytime you use /call. 

* '''Defining a default CB:'''
** By using '''/setdefault cb 4''' the server is going to use the CB on frequency 333 everytime I use /cb. 

* Using a default item won't disable others, that means you will still be able to get phone calls on every phone you have.

== Using a GPS ==
The examples below will add a red marker on your map. 

* '''Examples'''
** '''/gps mycar'''
** '''/gps businessname'''
** You can also use '''/gps''' for a menu with locations.
