    • Call - Starts a private voice call session with this Resident.
    • Teleport - Sends a teleport request to this Resident. You can enter an explanatory message, then click OK to summon them to your location. Teleports are usually long-distance but if an area is very dense, it may help to teleport a newfound friend directly to you.
