UPDATE

File: client.lua
Version: 1.1
Script: :sunglasses: Tint Meter
Proximity Fix Update
Released: July 2025

– New Features:
Proximity Detection Update

  • When a player checks tint near a vehicle, it now works even when the player is standing next to the car, as long as they are facing the vehicle.

  • This feature complements the original functionality that supports checking tint from inside the vehicle.

  • Command change to tm

–Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the tint meter would not work unless the player was seated in the vehicle.
Config.TintCheckDistance = 2.5 -- Distance allowed for checking while outside
Config.MustFaceVehicle = true -- Require facing the vehicle when standing outside

Notes:

  • Proximity check only activates if the player is near the driver-side door and looking at the vehicle.

  • Tint checking from inside the vehicle remains fully supported.
