📋 About This Mod

This is a small modification that gives you the opportunity to secretly kill the guards, answering pagers. Example - "Usually, if you kill the guard, then after his death, we must answer the pager, but if you have this modification, and if you killed the guard before he notices you, then the pager will not have to answer!
