Configuration — ns-ambulancejob

Everything is in config.lua. The sections below follow its order.

General

Patient model — Config.Physiology

Rhythms with a pulse — Config.Physiology.rhythms (0.11)

VT, SVT and AF with a fast rate. Only while knocked down; the patient cannot be woken until it is converted.

Chest — Config.Physiology.chest (0.11)

Pneumothorax and tension pneumothorax. Remove the whole table to switch the chest model off.

Tuning tip: to make patients last longer before arrest, lower bleed or arrestAt. To make field care matter more, raise bleed and the rosc.cprEpi bonuses.

Wrong treatment — Config.Physiology.complications (0.6)

Used while Config.Features.Complications = true. A harmful step goes through and hurts the patient; a useless one is still refused. Chances are 0..1. Epinephrine, amiodarone and a manual shock are always refused on a conscious patient (0.9), whatever this table says.

The medic who made a mistake earns nothing more for that emergency.

Bags — Config.Kits

0.11: the ALS bag has needle = 2 (needle decompression). Local epinephrine uses the epinephrine ampoules.

Care — Config.Care

Equipment — Config.Equipment, Config.Minigames (0.2)

The new features can be turned off one by one in Config.Features: Stretcher, Wheelchair, WalkingAid, StumbleOnFracture, PlaceBags, BodyBag, VehicleMonitor, Minigames, Handbook (0.3.0: the pocket guide tab in the care view; its text is in the hb_* locale keys), NextStep (0.4.0: the "Next" strip in the care view header and the glowing bag item for it), Complications (0.6.0: wrong treatment hurts the patient, see above; off = wrong steps are refused).

Death screen

Config.Keys (G / H / E), Config.Down (health while down, knockout seconds), Config.Respawn (timer, timer when EMS was on duty, block while EMS online / while treated, fee, account, hospital, item removal + keep list), Config.GiveUp, Config.Ems (jobs, cooldown, calls per emergency, dispatch provider, automatic alert, panicJobs / panicCooldown for the qbx_radialmenu emergency button), Config.Recap (killer display), Config.Hud, Config.Effects.

First aid items — Config.FirstAid (0.7)

Used while Config.Features.FirstAid = true. Each key of items is an item name, registered as a usable item.

Defaults: bandage (1 dressing, 4 s), ifaks (2 dressings + pill, 5 s), painkillers (pill, 3 s), firstaid (6 dressings + wake, on someone else, 20 s). Remove an item from the list to leave it to another resource.

Hospitals — Config.Hospitals, Config.CheckIn

Each hospital has label, coords + radius (nearest pick and the admit area), reception (doctor ped + check-in) and beds (vector4). Config.CheckIn: fee, account, maxEmsOnline (-1 = always open), bed time (base

• per severity point, max), admitSeconds, ped model. Config.Society(account, amount, reason) can send fees to your society account.

Optional per hospital (0.8): pharmacy (vector4, the pharmacist) and elevators (see below).

The default config has Pillbox Hill and Paleto Bay. There is no default Sandy Shores hospital (the vanilla building has no interior): with a Sandy MLO use its preset, otherwise add one with /emseditor.

Hospital presets — Config.Presets (0.8)

Config.Presets = { 'gabz_hospital' } loads presets/gabz_hospital.lua: one hospital and its job point(s), for that MLO. A preset hospital with the key of a default (pillbox, paleto) replaces it, a job point with the id of a default replaces it; anything else is added. Use the preset of the map you run; the list of names is in config.lua. A preset is plain data, in the same format as Config.Hospitals / Config.JobPoints, so you can copy one to make your own. Points moved with /emseditor win over the preset; "Back to config.lua" in the editor goes back to the preset. Check the beds, spawns and elevator stops once in game: maps differ between versions.

Elevators (0.8)

elevators = { { stop, stop, ... }, ... } on a hospital, one list per elevator (two to twelve stops). A stop:

Pharmacy — Config.Pharmacy (0.8)

account (default cash), maxAmount per purchase, pedModel, items = { { name, price }, ... } in menu order.

Wardrobe — Config.Wardrobe (0.8)

provider: auto (illenium-appearance, then qb-clothing), illenium-appearance (work outfits from its config or boss-managed outfits, or your own outfits), qb-clothing (outfit menu), custom (Config.Wardrobe.custom, client side) or none.

Job points — Config.JobPoints, Config.Vehicles, Config.Stash

Per point: duty, cabinet, stash, wardrobe, garage = { coords, spawn }, heli = { coords, spawn } (all optional). Config.Vehicles.ground / air: { model, grade, livery? }. ems: the models you can load patients into and restock from. patientSeats: rear seat indexes.

Rewards — Config.Rewards

treat, wake, rosc, admit, bodybag per event, perEmergency cap per medic per patient emergency, account.

Commands — Config.Commands

revive, heal, kill, preview, kit, practice, tablet (/ems), editor (/emseditor), callout (/emscallout). Set one to '' to disable it.

Tablet — Config.Tablet (0.5)

• key: default key of the tablet ('' = none; players bind it under Settings > Key Bindings > FiveM).
• item: e.g. 'ems_tablet' to require an item (using it opens the tablet). nil = command / key / vehicle only.
• vehicleOption: the "EMS tablet" target option at EMS vehicles.
• boardRefresh: seconds between board updates while a tablet is open.
• readAllGrade: grade that reads every PCR report (bosses always can).
• caseCloseAfter: seconds a case stays on the board once the patient is up and nobody treats him.
• caseKeep: seconds a closed case can still get a report. reportReward: paid once per case to a medic who treated the patient (0 = off). narrativeMax: length of the report text.

Features: Config.Features.Tablet, Reports, BossPanel, Missions, Insurance, LocationEditor.

Management — Config.Boss

grade (minimum grade of the Management tab, nil = the framework's boss flag), hireDistance, and an optional balance = function() return ... end to show the society account.

Insurance — Config.Insurance

plans = { id = { price, days, discount } } (discount = part of the fee the plan pays, 1.0 = all), account, covers = { checkin, admit, respawn }. Plan names come from the locale (ins_plan_<id>). Buying the same plan adds its days; another plan replaces it.

NPC call-outs — Config.Missions

• interval / jitter: seconds between calls; minEms: medics on duty needed; maxOpen: calls at once.
• callTimeout: an unanswered call expires; timeout: from accepting to hand-over; keepAway: metres from any medic a new call keeps.
• peds: patient models. pay: base + perSeverity x the outcome factor (alive, down, arrest, deceased), split between the medics who treated him.
• scenarios: { weight, phase = 'alive' | 'down' | 'dead', blood (fraction), wounds = { { zone, kind, severity } }, opioid }. Labels come from the locale (scn_<name>).
• spots: vector4 list (examples); edit them in game with /emseditor.

Location editor — Config.Editor

range (metres a saved point may be from the admin), maxBeds per hospital, maxSpots.

Discord log — Config.Features.Logs, Config.Logs (1.0)

Off by default. Turn on Config.Features.Logs and put the webhook in server.cfg (never in config.lua, which clients can read):

set ns_ambulancejob_webhook "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/..."

Config.Logs.events switches each category: death (knocked down, cardiac arrest, cause, place), revive (woke up, ROSC, hospital, respawn, the medic who did it), admin (every admin command and the Revive / Heal exports), money (medic payouts, hospital fees, pharmacy, insurance), boss (hire, fire, grade), security (server-side security flags). username is the name the messages are posted under. Messages are sent in batches of up to 10 every 2 seconds.
