Today I bring you a simple command (only took an hour or so to make) that spawns 4 axel stands under the car you are next to, and raises it up, so you may use the mechanic laying on the floor animation, and any other roleplay bits.
Download here - updated with checks to stop it working on cars that are not stopped, and that have a driver in them (i.e. so you can’t call it on cars going past you or to troll other players): lift_car_off_ground.zip (1.8 KB)
Simply drop the lift_car_off_ground folder into your resources folder, and add start lift_car_off_ground to your server.cfg file
Hey man, nice script, I’ve done a slight modification to how the raising/lowering effect/animation looks to make it feel smoother, I’ll link the github to the modified version here in case someone wants to apply the changes too.
Man I love simple scripts like these. I can easily add the client/server lua to my “scripts” resource to save on resources being loaded. And since thss won’t be used often, it won’t affect performance much.
With the help of fellow developers from my server, we have synched the raising/lowering animations with all the players and now if your client raised the vehicle someone else can lower it.
It is purely standalone at present, but if you have some scripting experience it shouldn’t be that difficult to pop a job check in (from my ESX experience that is)
Sweet. I’m on mobile as I’m admitted into the hospital so I didn’t check the github. Thanks for the hard work guys! I’ll get this I my city, my mechanics will love it.
It’s not too hard to do. You can literally look in a job script and pull the few lines you’ll need that check for the needed job and paste them in this. Just go slow, look at what you’re doing, ans if you fail, trial & error bud. I wish I was home so I could do thus for you. Currently still in the hospital.
