Integrating Your Servers Fuel Script

The vehicle control UI displays the amount of fuel a vehicle has. Follow the steps below to integrate your servers fuel script, depending on which one you have (if any). This script includes direct support for using no fuel script (standalone), cdn-fuel and legacy-fuel - however any fuel script can be added with some additional configuration.

NO FUEL SCRIPT

Set Config

shared/config.lua

-- The fuel script you wish to use. 
-- The script comes with support for cdn-fuel, legacy-fuel and standalone functionality. Check documentation for more info
Config.FuelScript = 'none'    

CDN-FUEL

Set Config

shared/config.lua

Config.FuelScript = 'cdn-fuel'

LEGACY-FUEL

Set Config

shared/config.lua

Config.FuelScript = 'legacy-fuel'

ANY OTHER FUEL SCRIPT

Set Config

shared/config.lua

Config.FuelScript = 'other'

Add Custom Fuel Reading Code

• Open up the shared functions file found in shared/functions.lua

• Edit the last elseif statement in the givenGetFuelLevel function.

  • The vehicle being checked is provided as a paramater (veh).

  • shared/functions.lua

    function GetFuelLevel(veh)
        --standalone
        if Config.FuelScript == 'none' or Config.FuelScript == 'standalone' then 
            return GetVehicleFuelLevel(veh)
    
        --cdn fuel script
        elseif Config.FuelScript == 'cdn-fuel' then 
            return exports['cdn-fuel']:GetFuel(veh) 
    
        --legacy fuel script
        elseif Config.FuelScript == 'legacy-fuel' then
            return DecorGetFloat(veh, '_FUEL_LEVEL') 
        
        elseif Config.FuelScript == 'other' then
            -- If you are using any other fuel script, just add the code that gets the fuel amount right here
            -- Make sure the fuel amount is RETURNED as a number between 0 and 100 
        end
    end

  • Utilize exports or any means from your custom fuel script to check how much fuel the vehicle has, and return the amount as a number between 0 and 100
