Restricted Zones (Dead Zones) (configuration/restrictedZone.lua)
5M Phone includes a realistic cellular signal coverage system where players in remote or shielded zones (mountains, underground bunkers, state prison) lose cell signal.
How Restricted Zones Work
When a player enters a restricted polygon zone:
- Signal is Lost: Cellular bars drop to 0, and incoming calls cannot connect ("The person is not reachable").
- Dynamic Island Alert: A warning banner pops up: "No Cellular Signal - Lost signal. Enable Wi-Fi in Control Center to use Wi-Fi calling & internet."
- Wi-Fi Calling: If the player toggles Wi-Fi on in the Control Center (or is near a router/building), internet and calling functionality are restored.
- Offline Apps: Offline utility apps (Camera, Photos, Notes, Calculator, Clock, Maps GPS) remain completely usable.
Configuring Blocked vs Offline Apps
In configuration/restrictedZone.lua:
Lua
Config.RestrictedZones = {
Enabled = true,
CheckIntervalMs = 1200,
RestrictedApps = {
xbird = true, -- Blocked out of signal
browser = true, -- Blocked
insta = true, -- Blocked
mail = true, -- Blocked
appstore = true, -- Blocked
ypage = true, -- Blocked
news = true, -- Blocked
darkchat = true, -- Blocked
payus = true, -- Blocked
housing = true, -- Blocked
services = true, -- Blocked
-- Offline allowed:
maps = false,
camera = false,
photos = false,
recorder = false,
notes = false,
calculator = false,
clock = false,
garage = false,
settings = false,
},
}Defining Polygon Dead Zones
Lua
Config.RestrictedZones.Zones = {
Zone1 = {
name = 'Paleto Forest & Mount Chiliad Dead Zone',
points = {
vector2(-283.33, 4922.73),
vector2(-180.30, 5256.06),
vector2(-295.45, 5486.36),
vector2(-186.36, 5795.45),
vector2(213.64, 5892.42),
vector2(165.15, 6068.18),
},
},
