PDA
When you spawn you start with a PDA, it comes loaded with special tools and programs depending on what your starting assignment is.
Functions
Every PDA has a set of basic functions
- Notekeeper: it allows you to make text notes and save them.
- Messenger: scan for other PDAs and send them text messages, set custom ringtones, or look at your past messages.
- File Browser: browse files in the PDAs internal drive, or navigate to the attached cart "MAIN"
PDA Scanners
Most PDAs have special scanners which allow them to act as a certain scanner you would normally use.
A Medical Doctor's PDA can be used as a Health Analyzer
The Electrician's PDA has a built in T-Ray Scanner
The Detective's PDA has a built in Forensic's Scanner
PDA Programs
PDAs come loaded with programs, and can have new programs loaded by changing their cart. You can eject a cart from the main menu, and inserting a new cart is as simple as clicking on the PDA with the cart in the active hand. Not all PDAs come with carts.
PDA Modules
PDAs have modules which can be changed by using a screwdriver and a crowbar on it. Most PDAs start with the flashlight module.
Robustris
A program in the internal drive of all PDAs. A game Coded while under the influence of plasma, it is most certainly NOT tetris and getting caught playing it will likely result in a swift beating by the crew. If security or the AI see you playing this in maintenance, they will confirm you traitor.
