How the Maps Fit In#

The four maps of Foundations Living run no code: they have no config, no commands and no exports. They give your server the place, and your existing scripts give it the gameplay. Any script that takes a coordinate — a job, a stash, a shop, a garage, a door lock, a blip — works with them, on any framework.

What to Connect#

Door Locks#

Door lock scripts such as ox_doorlock or qb-doorlock register a door by pointing at it in game. Restrict each door to the job that works there — the gardener cabin to the gardeners, the power plant to the electricians — and keep the front of the electronics store public during opening hours.

Add doors with the maps running. A door lock only finds a door that is streamed in front of you, so the map must be started before you register it.

Blips#

The maps add no blips, so they do not clutter the map of a server that does not use them. Most job and shop scripts add their own; if yours does not, a small client file in any of your own resources is enough:

local locations = {
    { label = 'Cottage Park Gardeners', coords = vector3(-949.91, 329.24, 71.34),   sprite = 469 },
    { label = 'Power Plant',            coords = vector3(532.98, -1617.27, 29.52),  sprite = 354 },
    { label = 'Electronics Store',      coords = vector3(52.50, -1597.62, 29.58),   sprite = 521 },
    { label = 'Lumberjack',             coords = vector3(1224.13, -1265.60, 35.30), sprite = 85 },
}

CreateThread(function()
    for _, location in ipairs(locations) do
        local blip = AddBlipForCoord(location.coords.x, location.coords.y, location.coords.z)
        SetBlipSprite(blip, location.sprite)
        SetBlipScale(blip, 0.8)
        SetBlipAsShortRange(blip, true)
        BeginTextCommandSetBlipName('STRING')
        AddTextComponentString(location.label)
        EndTextCommandSetBlipName(blip)
    end
end)

Commands and Exports#

There are none. The maps are streamed assets only, so there is nothing to call, nothing to trigger and nothing that can break another script. If a guide or a script asks for a Foundations Living export, it is asking for the coordinates on the Map Guide.
