Informational items

Informational items are items that generally display textual information to the player, on the right side of the screen (below the minimap, if it is displayed). Despite being accessories (except the Cell Phone), they still function normally when placed in an inventory slot, but in vanity accessory slot they don't do anything. Informational items are shared with nearby players.

An informational item's readout may be toggled by opening the Inventory and clicking the corresponding icon in the collapsed row of icons. Multiple function items, such as the Cell Phone, can be made to show only information relevant to the player in this way.

The Ruler and Mechanical Ruler are exceptions to these points, only working when equipped as accessories, displaying non-text information only to the using player, and being toggled with the eye button.
