Hello. I’m using esx_ambulancejob and everything would be fine if the player could rotate the camera when having BW status or even allow him to close his ESC menu when dead, because now when the player dies when having ESC menu opened, they are basically freezed and they need to leave the server by console.
mhm, When you die then it triggers all of the DisableControls, You need to make a a check that closes the ESC Menu when PedIsDead
Yeah I see that it disable nearly all of DisableControls, but even if I removed the disables that still gives nothing. I think that blocking player controls when player is dead is GTA V mechanic, but I have seen some servers (and even played on one) where you can rotate the camera when having BW. Changing anything about disabling/enabling controls in esx_ambulancejob doesn’t work.
@edit And this doesn’t work:
if IsDead then
if IsPauseMenuActive() then
SetPauseMenuActive(false)
end
end
Hi there. Not sure if people are still having this issue but pretty easy fix was this.
- Open the esx_ambulancejob client.lua
- Go all the way down to the botttom of the client.lua
Paste this at the bottom of it:
local cam = nil
local isDead = false
local angleY = 0.0
local angleZ = 0.0
--------------------------------------------------
---------------------- LOOP ----------------------
--------------------------------------------------
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
while true do
Citizen.Wait(1)
-- process cam controls if cam exists and player is dead
if (cam and isDead) then
ProcessCamControls()
end
end
end)
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
while true do
Citizen.Wait(500)
if (not isDead and NetworkIsPlayerActive(PlayerId()) and IsPedFatallyInjured(PlayerPedId())) then
isDead = true
StartDeathCam()
elseif (isDead and NetworkIsPlayerActive(PlayerId()) and not IsPedFatallyInjured(PlayerPedId())) then
isDead = false
EndDeathCam()
end
end
end)

Boom, restart the resource, kill a player to test, and they should have no issue with turning their camera! 
if you want, you can find all the values of 5.5 (there should 5 of these values. This is how close the camera will be to the player
Good luck and this should work 100% without a doubt
