Pager mod MP [41.66]

I present my new mod which adds pager in the game.
The mod is for RP and only works in multiplayer.

Range of radios is taken into account !



The first thing to do to use it is to get a pager. The only way to get one is by crafting it.
To get the pager craft, you must learn the recipe from Electronics Magazine Vol. 4.

To send a message, you need a two way radio !
In the radio menu, if it is on, you will see an icon in the shape of an envelope. Click on it to open the menu to send a message.
In this menu you have to choose two things, the recipient(s) and the message to send.
For the recipient. You choose from a list specific to your character. To add a contact to the list, you click on the "Add contact" button. In this menu you enter a name for the contact and pager numbers. To add a number, you write it then press enter. The number should appear in the list. You can add as many numbers per contact as you want. Once all number enter, press the "Save" button.

For the text to send, just enter what you want to send next to "Message:" and press "Send" (Or enter in the box).
You can only send a text with this characters: "0123456789-_=. " (See seconde video)

Exemple of code to send:

To use a pager, you right click on it in the inventory and then you get 3 options: (See first video)
- Change the pager's name, like that the display name in the inventory is change. Usefull if you have more than one pager.
- Get pager's number.
- Open the pager.

When you open the pager, you get an UI with four buttons and which displays the first message received (or empty if no message). There are two buttons to navigate through the messages, a button to delete the selected message and a button to display the date and time the message was received. (first click display the the day, month and year, second click hour and minute and third click go back to the message text.)

- To get a notification, the pager need to be in your inventory.
- Clicking outside the pager when it is open closes it.
- You can change the size of the pager (need a restart) and the color of the screen in the options.
- The range of radios is taken into account, so if you do not receive messages, chances are that you are too far. Messages that are not received are deleted.
- Messages are backed up between server resets
- If you have a pager in your inventory and are not in the server when you get a message, you still get it when you come back, with the date when sended.

- The window to send a message in the radio window
- Alphanumerical pager
- Pager use battery
- Traps (send a message when a door is open for exemple)
- World model for pager

I doubt it but let's imagine that someone wants to send a message for his mod.
For that it is not very complicated, you can only do it from the client. You can use the timed action:
Or the function directly:

Doesn't work in split screen
I do not authorize the use of my code for other mods or modpacks. If you want it, ask it pls.
