Call another citizen or emergency service

Use your CoreRP phone number to call another citizen or submit an emergency, Road maintenance, or Taxi request.

Before you begin

  • Create a phone number for the active character and keep a positive quantity of a Phone-category item in its inventory.
  • For service calls, an administrator must configure the dispatch channel, Taxi thread, and alert roles.
  • For citizen calls, both participants need Connect and Speak in the created voice channel.
  • /phone has no staff permission requirement, but it must be enabled and allowed in the current channel.

Call another citizen

  1. Ask the recipient for the number shown by /phone my-number.
  2. Run /phone call number:<phone number>. Spaces, hyphens, and parentheses are accepted.
  3. CoreRP creates a private voice channel for the caller and recipient and posts a public call message with End call.
  4. Join the channel; CoreRP does not move either participant automatically.
  5. Select End call when finished. CoreRP deletes the channel and changes the message to The call has ended. An unanswered citizen-call channel is deleted after 30 minutes.

The recipient needs an active character with that number but does not need a Phone item. Neither participant can already be in another regular CoreRP call.

Calling does not charge money or consume the Phone item.

Troubleshooting

  • A cooldown response — wait for the displayed cooldown before retrying.
  • An ID, Phone item, or phone-number error — select the intended character, obtain a Phone-category item, or create its number.
  • This phone number does not exist! — copy the number from the recipient's /phone my-number result and confirm that character remains active.
  • You cannot call your own number. or an active-call response — use another number or end the existing call first.
  • A missing emergency line, dispatch channel, or Taxi destination — ask an administrator to check the saved country, routing destination, and CoreRP permissions.
