All crewmembers begin with a PDA, loaded with special tools and programs depending on what your starting assignment is. PDAs can be bought from CartyParty vending machines. Certain jobs may find their PDA more useful than others. Traitors generally acquire their gear with their PDA.

After an ID card has been inserted, PDAs can be worn in the ID slot to free up inventory space.

Basic Functions

  • Notekeeper: Allows you to make text notes and save them. On an unlocked Syndicate PDA, this will instead bring up a list of available items to purchase.
  • Messenger: Scan for other PDAs and send them text messages, set custom ringtones, or look at your past messages. If your PDA is in your belt, pocket, or lapel, you can see what incoming messages are in the chat window and directly reply without having to pull out the PDA. By default the PDA is set to Messaging On; turning it Off will not allow you to send or receive texts but will also prevent you from being the victim of a Detomatrix missile.
  • File Browser: Browse files in the PDAs internal drive or on the inserted cartridge. Job specific programs are loaded on the cartridge. Programs can also be deleted or moved about as memory permits.
  • Atmospheric Analyzer: Shows the composition of gas in the area around you.
  • Flashlight: Activates the PDA's module, typically a flashlight.
  • Crisis Alert: Allows you to send an emergency call along with your current position to all medical, engineering or security PDAs.
  • Supply Request: Order supplies on the go. Don't expect QMs to actually deliver them if there isn't a cargo pad, belt hell dock or MULE beacon nearby.
  • Robustris: A program in the internal drive of all PDAs. A game coded while under the influence of space drugs. If you manage to beat it all the secrets of 2D SpaceMan game will be revealed.

PDA Scanners

Most PDAs have special scanners which allow them to act as a certain scanner you would normally use.

Some PDAs are capable of switching between different types of scanners. Selecting the appropriate file from the cartridge will change the scanner.

PDA Modules

PDAs have modules which can be changed by using a screwdriver and a crowbar on it. Most PDAs start with a flashlight module.

Mechanics start with a special T-Ray Scanner module in place of a flash-light module in their PDAs.

High-power flashlight modules can be purchased from CartyParty vending machines.

Cartridges

An asterisk (*) indicates that the cartridge is available for purchase from CartyParty vending machines.
