Description

Tablet experience

Welcome to Night Shifts MDT (v1) — a customizable Mobile Data Terminal for your FiveM community. Whether you run police, fire, EMS, tow, or other emergency services, Night Shifts helps you run operations from one place: dispatch (calls, map, units), shift and status, and PNC-style records (people, vehicles, warrants, cases, ANPR), alongside civilian council tools for identity, documents, and vehicles. The MDT is meant to fit your server — departments, ranks, permissions, forms, and reference data are managed in the tablet, with languages and settings so you can align emergency-services roleplay with any country or region.

v1 provides in-game tablet with modern looks and has a responsive feel with endless features.

Compatible with Emergency Response Simulator

Night Shifts integrates with Emergency Response Simulator:

  • Search NPCs and their vehicles in the MDT after they have been interacted with via ERS.
  • Look them up in the PNC/NCIC for personal info, documents, licenses, vehicles, charges and warrants.
  • Add flags and markers to NPCs from the MDT.
  • Create case files, issue fines and add charges to an NPC’s record.
  • Mark vehicles as BOLO so they appear in ANPR.
  • Shift state stays aligned between MDT and ERS so units are always in sync.

Persistent NPC & vehicle pool

Every NPC and vehicle that gets interacted with through ERS is persisted in the MDT as a fully-fledged civilian and vehicle record, generated on the fly by Night Shifts’ built-in NPC & vehicle pool:

  • Fictive identities — Each NPC gets a generated name, date of birth, sex, contact details and address (or foreign home country if a tourist), drawn from large multi-ethnicity name pools you can extend or replace.
  • Identity documents — ID card and passport are auto-issued with realistic statuses (valid / expired / revoked) based on configurable probabilities.
  • Driver licences — Generated with weighted statuses (valid / expired / suspended / revoked) and a configurable chance of carrying penalty points.
  • Vehicle records — Each NPC vehicle gets registration, road tax, MOT / roadworthiness and insurance status generated per vehicle tier (compacts are more likely to be non-compliant than supercars), plus a configurable chance of being stolen or carrying a BOLO marker.
  • Vehicle ownership — Drivers are owners by configurable probability; otherwise a separate registered owner is generated (borrowed, rental, company car, etc.).
  • Tourists & undocumented residents — A small fraction of NPCs are foreign nationals; some of those are flagged as undocumented with elevated chances of expired/revoked papers, while genuine tourists keep clean documents.
  • Warrants & flags — Configurable chances of an active warrant (always paired with a matching flag) and standalone flags. The system auto-resolves the issuing police department at startup, so no manual IDs are needed.
  • Persistent across sessions — Once generated, every record lives in the database. The same NPC will return the same identity, history and vehicle next time it’s queried — building a believable, evolving city over time.
  • Fully tunable — All probabilities, name pools and street/city data are exposed in config/config_npc_pool.lua.

Compatible with frameworks (optional)

Night Shifts is standalone first, but optionally integrates with ESX (es_extended), QBox (qbx_core) and QBCore (qb-core):

  • Auto civilian sync — When a player loads in, their character is created or updated in the MDT civilian registry (name, DOB, sex, phone, job, etc.).
  • Identity documents — Identity documents can be auto-stamped on first sync (configurable per document type).
  • Framework fines — Council fines can be paid directly from the player’s bank or cash (configurable per framework).

If no framework is detected, Night Shifts runs fully standalone using its own council registration flows.
