In-Game Configuration - Admin Menu

If you are stuck, or run into problems. Just review this and ensure you didn't do anything wrong within the config.

Example Config:

--[[
    To open the menu, use /admin (can be changed in the config.lua file).
    You can use commands or buttons within the menu to perform actions against players.

    Commands:

        - /ban <id> <duration> <reason> - Bans a player for a specified duration and reason.
        - /kick <id> <reason> - Kicks a player for a specified reason.
        - /commend <id> <reason> - Commends a player for a specified reason.
        - /warn <id> <reason> - Warns a player for a specified reason.
        - /trustscore <id> - Shows the trustscore of a player.
        - /f <id> - Toggle freeze on a player.
        - /s <id> - Summon a player to your location.
        - /tp <id> - Teleport to a player.
        - /tpv <id> - Teleport into a player's vehicle.
        - /ss <id> - Take a screenshot of a player.
        - /playernames - Toggle player names on/off.

Things to be aware of

Below are some things you need to know while configuring the Admin Menu. The configuration is straightforward, but you must be mindful of a few things.

Debug

Set this to true if you are running into issues, that'll help you find exactly what's happening and what might be causing your problem.

URL

Ensure it begins with a "https://" and ends with a "/". SSL is required.

Server Name

This must be the same name as the one set in your config.php. It must be identical. The panel supports multiple servers, so ensure you put in the right one.

Example:

If you have this in your config.php:

'server_name' => 'Menu Server',

Then your server name would be this in your config.lua:

SERVER = 'Menu Server',

Webhook logs

This logs errors, in the future it'll log more.

UI Settings

SHOW_STAFF - This function shows if a player is a staff member in the player's tab of the admin menu. It does this by checking if the player has logged into the panel.

SHOW_INFO_TYPE - Shows the label in the player's tab of the admin menu.

Tell The World

If any of the values are set to true, this will show the action performed, to everyone in the server.

TxAdmin Warning

This utilises the monitor resource found in the server by default and triggers an event to display the TxAdmin warning message when someone is warned.

Credits to the txAdmin for making it, we just trigger the event.

Permissions

Discord Permissions are based on Discord roles and rely on Badger_Discord_API or any other script with the same exports.

Ace permissions work like this:

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.banplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.banplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.banplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.kickplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.kickplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.kickplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.noteplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.noteplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.noteplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.commendplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.commendplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.commendplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.warnplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.warnplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.warnplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.getplayers allow # Allow's player to view the admin menu
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.getplayers allow # Allow's player to view the admin menu
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.getplayers allow # Allow's player to view the admin menu

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.summonplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.summonplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.summonplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.teleportplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.teleportplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.teleportplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.freezeplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.freezeplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.freezeplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.teleportinvehicle allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.teleportinvehicle allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.teleportinvehicle allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.screenshotplayer allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.screenshotplayer allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.screenshotplayer allow

add_ace group.admin hamzstaff.immune allow
add_ace group.staff hamzstaff.immune allow
add_ace group.moderator hamzstaff.immune allow

Discord Resource Name

Case-sensitive. Note not every discord permissions script will work, only the ones that have the same exports as Badger_Discord_API. If you do not know if your discord permissions script has those exports, just download Badger's resource: https://github.com/JaredScar/Badger_Discord_API

If you want to remove the annoying ad's, simply remove this from the server.lua in Badger's resource:

RegisterNetEvent('Badger_Discord_API:PlayerLoaded')
AddEventHandler('Badger_Discord_API:PlayerLoaded', function()
	if (GetCurrentResourceName() ~= "Badger_Discord_API") then 
		TriggerClientEvent('chatMessage', -1, '^1[^5SCRIPT ERROR^1] ^3The script ^1' .. GetCurrentResourceName() .. ' ^3will not work properly... You must '
	.. 'rename the resource to ^1Badger_Discord_API');
	end
	local license = GetIdentifier(source, 'license');
	if (tracked[license] == nil) then 
		tracked[license] = true;
		TriggerClientEvent('chatMessage', source, 
		'^1[^5Badger_Discord_API^1] ^3The Discord API script was created by Badger. You may join his Discord at: ^6discord.gg/WjB5VFz')
	end
	TriggerClientEvent('chatMessage', source, 
		'^7[^2Zap-Hosting^7] ^3Use code ^5TheWolfBadger-4765 ^3at checkout for ^220% ^3off of selected services. Visit ^5https://zap-hosting.com/badger ^3to get started!');
end)

Keybind

The keybind can be changed by staff in their FiveM settings even if you set it to a certain key.

Screenshot

You'll need screenshot-basic for this, if you renamed it, just change the name here.

Options

This is a new feature of the admin menu, it allows you to add your own custom events and commands. Note, that it is recommended to add additional checks to the provided events/commands.

By default, we give you three custom options (two are the same), invisibility and player names. You can remove one of the player names. One of them uses ACE perms and the other uses Discord roles.

If you set CONFIG.PERMISSIONS.TYPE to ACE, the options will use ACE perms, if you set it to DISCORD, it'll use Discord roles.

This guide explains how to add custom commands and events.

Add these new events/commands into your config, see the above config example.

Adding a command:

To add a new command to your server, follow these steps:

1. Actions:

   • Write command for the type .

   • The action should be the name of your command minus the (/). For instance, for /playernames, set the action to playernames

2. Command Details:

   • name: This identifier for your command must be unique and cannot contain spaces. Make sure each option has a different name.

   • title: The name that will appear in the menu.

   • description: A brief description of what the command does, this will also appear under the title in the menu.

3. Configure Args (Optional):

   • Add additional settings such as inputs or checkboxes. Actions are configured with a type and a sortOrder which determines their order of appearance.

   • sortOrder: This number indicates the order in which the inputs appear during command configuration.

   Here’s an example of different types:

args = {
    {
        type = 'input-number',
        title = 'Player ID',
        sortOrder = 1
    },
    {
        type = 'dropdown',
        title = 'Effect',
        sortOrder = 2,
        args = {
            {value = 'sparkle', label = 'Sparkle'},
            {value = 'flash', label = 'Flash'},
            {value = 'glow', label = 'Glow'}
        }
    },
    {
        type = 'checkbox',
        title = 'Enable effect for all?',
        sortOrder = 3
    },
    {
        type = 'input-string',
        title = 'Announcement',
        sortOrder = 4
    }
}

4. Submit Button:

   • submit: This is the label on the button used to execute the command, e.g., Apply.

5. Set Permissions:

   • permissions: Specify permissions needed to view and execute the command. Use role IDs for Discord permissions or specific strings for ACE permissions. Leave it empty if you want anyone who has permission to open the menu to access this option.

Example configuration for a custom command:

{
    actions = {
        type = 'command',
        action = 'showplayernames'
    },
    name = 'show_player_names',  // Notice no spaces
    title = 'Show Player Names',
    description = 'Toggle visibility of player names.',
    args = {
        {
            type = 'input-number',
            title = 'Player ID',
            sortOrder = 1
        }
    },
    submit = 'Apply',
    permissions = {'1125449225069666377'}
}

Adding a Custom Event

Adding an event is similar to adding a command, with a few distinctions:

1. Actions:

   • Use event for the type.

   • Specify the action as the event name and the event as either server or client.

2. Event Details:

   • name: The unique identifier for your event, also cannot contain spaces. Make sure each option has a different name.

3. Configure Args (Optional):

   • Include configurations such as inputs:

args = {
    {
        type = 'input-number',
        title = 'Target ID',
        sortOrder = 1
    }
}

4. Submit Button:

   • submit: Label the button that triggers the event, such as Execute.

5. Set Permissions:

   • Define access, in the same way as the commands.

Example configuration for a custom event:

{
    actions = {
        type = 'event',
        action = 'server:toggleInvisibility',
        event = 'server'
    },
    name = 'toggle_invisibility',  // No spaces
    title = 'Toggle Invisibility',
    description = 'Make yourself invisible.',
    args = {
        {
            type = 'input-number',
            title = 'Target ID',
            sortOrder = 1
        }
    },
    submit = 'Trigger',
    permissions = {}
}

By following these instructions, you can effectively add and configure your own commands and events. If any questions arise, feel free to refer back to this guide or create a ticket within our discord.

Your config should now look something like this, of course with your new commands/events.

CONFIG.OPTIONS = {
    {
        actions = {
            type = 'command',
            action = 'playernames'

        title = 'Player Names (DISCORD PERMS)',

    }
}
