Common Errors — Sit Everywhere | Quasar Store | Quasar Store

There is no Sit option on a chair

Three usual causes. The target resource started late, or General → Target system is forced to one that is not running — the console says "TargetSystem is forced to … but that resource is not started"; fix it and restart. The player is further than Interaction distance (2.5 m). Or the model is not one of the 261 the script knows, which is the case for most addon furniture: use /sit and Place & adjust on it instead.

"That seat is already taken."

Another player holds that seat point. On a bench or sofa, every one of its seats is taken. A seat held by somebody who left the server is freed automatically the next time anyone asks for it. To turn reservations off entirely, switch off Sitting → Seat claiming.

"You cannot place a seat through walls or solid objects." when sitting on a prop

The walk to the seat did not get there: a wall, a fence, a locked door or another player was in the way, or Walk timeout ran out. Sitting anyway would carry the player through whatever stopped them, so it is refused. Stand closer, or come from the open side.

"You cannot place a seat in mid-air." when using /sit

There is nothing solid under the player within Mid-air margin (1 m) — they are jumping, falling, or standing on the edge of a step. Move onto the flat. Manual placement → Block mid-air switches the check off.

The ped floats above the seat, or sinks into it

The probe could not find the cushion on that model, so the kind's seat height was used instead. Adjust Chair, Stool, Bench or Sofa seat height in the Sitting section — they apply to every prop of that kind — or let players use Place & adjust on it. /sitdev seat shows which kind and which source the script used.

The ped faces into the backrest

That model was authored facing the other way. Players can turn it with Place & adjust; Sitting → Facing offset turns every chair at once, so only change it if most of them are wrong.

The player gets a different sitting animation from the one they picked

Rockstar placed a scenario point on that bench, and the script used it because it is perfectly aligned — with the game's own bench animation. Pressing E switches to the chosen pose on the same spot. To always get the chosen pose straight away, turn off Sitting → Use map scenarios.

The player stands up on their own

Something cleared the pose — another script clearing tasks, a ragdoll — and Sit Everywhere puts it back within half a second. If it keeps happening, look for a resource that clears the player's tasks every frame, like an emote-cancel or anti-AFK script, and keep it away from seated players.

E does not open the change-animation bar

Either Interaction → Change animation while seated is off, the player is on a preset seat (they have no bar, only the stand-up key), or another resource uses the same key. Pick another one in Interaction → Change animation key.

I changed the stand up key and players still use X

That is how FiveM key bindings work: the default only applies to players who never bound the key. Anyone with X already saved keeps it until they change it under Settings → Key Bindings → FiveM → Stand up.

Message	Means
`oxmysql is not started`	Settings are kept in memory only and reset on restart.
`could not create qs_sit_settings`	The database user may not create tables. Run `sql/database.sql` once.
`TargetSystem is forced to "…" but that resource is not started`	General → Target system names a resource that is not running. No third-eye options are added.
`preset seats are set to "…" but no target resource is running; using floating text`	Preset seats → Interaction asks for the third eye on a server without one.
`could not load custom/<framework>/client.lua`	The framework bridge failed. Sitting still works; only the player's identity is unknown.
`could not get the es_extended object within 60 s`	The framework never answered. Same effect as above; it keeps retrying.
`language "…" does not exist in locales/, using "en"`	The chosen language file is missing from `locales/`.
`… tried to open the config panel without ace "…"`	Somebody without the permission typed `/sitconfig`. The line includes the `add_ace` to grant it.
`no command name set for "…"`	A command field in `/sitconfig` was left empty; the default name is used.
`New version available for qs-siteverywhere!`	Download the update from the CFX Portal. The lines after it list what changed.
`API is not available. Unable to check the version.`	The update check could not be reached. Harmless.
