Mechanics

Set up your loading screen Install the Mechanics module, design the screen players see while they join your server, publish it and add the lonexone_loadscreen resource to your game server. Choose a layout, style and background Pick one of six layouts, a dark, light or glass style and your colour, then set a slideshow of your own pictures or a YouTube video behind it all. Add music, rules and links to your loading screen Upload music, choose which blocks show and in what order (welcome, player count, rules, staff, news, tips, keybinds and links) and write the text that fills them. Design a custom loading screen Use the Custom layout to place text, your logo, pictures, content cards, a loading bar and a music player anywhere on the screen, then drag, resize and style each one.

Set up the spawn selector Let players choose where they start when they join, from places you set up. The camera flies over each one before they go, some can be just for certain departments, and it can carry your logo and colour. Set up character select Have players pick one of their characters as they join, or make a new one that's added to the CAD at the same time, with each character's look remembered in game.

Set up the HUD Put speed, fuel, seatbelt, compass, roads, postal and more on screen in game. Pick one of seven designs, choose your colours, where it sits and what it shows, let players change it with /hud, and swap the minimap for a postal map. Change the AOP and peacetime Move the AOP and turn peacetime on or off from the game with /aop and /peacetime, on the HUD page or from the top of the CAD. Everyone is told in chat and sees it on their HUD straight away. Use priority cooldowns Allow one priority at a time across the server, then a cooldown before the next. Players start and end their own with /priority, staff can put priorities on hold, and everyone sees the status and countdown on their HUD. Schedule the AOP Have the AOP change by itself at set times of the week, like Sandy Shores on weekday evenings, with a warning in chat a few minutes before each change.

Set up game permissions Give players permissions in game from their Discord roles, website roles, ranks, divisions and CAD duty. LonexOne makes the ACE groups and gives them to the right players, so you don't keep a permissions.cfg or a Discord bot token on your server. Use the game permissions board Make groups, file them in folders, choose who gets each one from Discord roles, website roles, ranks, divisions and duty, and pick what each group can do from a list of vMenu, EasyAdmin and FiveM permissions. Check a player's game permissions See everything that decides a player's groups, whether they get each group and why, what your server has applied to them right now, and whether they have a permission like vMenu.NoClip. Import game permissions from a config Paste your DiscordAcePerms config.lua and your permissions.cfg, check what LonexOne found, and add it to the board in one go. Or start an empty board from a template. Replace Badger_Discord_API and DiscordAcePerms Remove Badger_Discord_API and DiscordAcePerms from your server. Scripts that use Badger's exports keep working through LonexOne's bot, with no Discord bot token on your server. Set up the join gate Choose who can join your game server: anyone, anyone in your Discord, or only people with certain roles, ranks or divisions. Everyone else sees a card in your community's name with a button to join your Discord. Lock vehicles, weapons and peds to groups Choose which groups can drive a vehicle, use a weapon or attachment, or play as a ped. Everyone else is stopped in game. It does the job of DiscordVehiclesRestrict, DiscordWeaponPerms and DiscordPedPerms, and can import their lists. Give a group for a set time Give one player a game permission group for an hour, a week or until a date you pick, like a trial week for new staff or event access for a night. It comes off by itself. Game permissions troubleshooting What to check when a player doesn't get a group, a permission doesn't work in game, or the server console says LonexOne can't give out permissions.

Set up Discord presence Show your community on players' Discord profiles while they play, with your own Discord app's name, your images, live details like their department and area, and buttons to join your server or Discord.

Set up door locks Lock doors in game so only the right people can open them, like officers on duty at their own station. Add doors in game with the door manager, then choose who opens them in game or on the website.

Set up death and hospital Make players who die stay down until a medic revives them or takes them to hospital. Set the respawn timer, who counts as a medic, how long hospital stays last, the bill, and where each hospital is in game.
