Ash Posted December 30, 2020 Report Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) With lifeinvader being a real IC website available as a phone application I think there's enough use of it to have the government website (https://gov.eclipse-rp.net/) one as well. The mobile version of the forum is usable enough to fit on the small screen as well as lifeinvader currently does [see below] and would be a nice addition to emergency services faction members as well as easier for people to ICly direct people for things such as IA reports, gun licenses, business registration, job applications. In fact, I use gov website on my irl mobile all the time for faction stuff so it's very usable on a small screen. Edit, Second suggestion:: Give Laptops (Or even MDCs) a use as a proper web browser for lifeinvader and government website An option for it to be used on laptops is also a possibility with a larger screen such as the MDC one. Which could allow for basic web browsing of IC sites with tabs so Human Resources/FTO etc of gov factions can do their work and not be penalized for it especially when those people already do a lot out of game.

Yputi Posted January 4, 2021 Report Posted January 4, 2021 +1 But if I am very honest, I feel like pretty much everyone will just use their web version anyway, as (with LifeInvader atleast) you have to log in every single time you connect to the server.
Cyrus Raven Posted January 4, 2021 Report Posted January 4, 2021 +1 Although I fear this will become like lifeinvader where most people will still use the web version (putting aside the fact that lifeinvader on either platform is dead af right now)

But reading/responding to emails by pulling out your phone on-duty will be a nice little thing and also using it for reference to look up information to keep some immersion would be neat. My main reason for this suggestion is obviously website support is supported by the phone and with this being an IC website I think it makes sense for this to be an option with hopefully minimal development.
Tremo Posted January 4, 2021 Report Posted January 4, 2021 +1 I think a big positive of this is accessibility. Some people may not even realise there is a government website so having it right there by default on everyones phone is a huge benefit. 1
Ash Posted January 9, 2021 Author Report Posted January 9, 2021 With this being a thing I really hope this suggestion is considered as gov website stuff is a BIG part of Human resources/field training/recruitment divisions & departments for Emergency Services
WinterBlack Posted January 9, 2021 Report Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) +1 edit: it’ll help with “immersion” being able to write stuff in game instead of constantly having to tab out and get the horrible ((tabbed out)) above your head, seeming like you’re not paying attention in training or interviews etc when you’re just writing notes/writing documents.
