vBasic is a resource which gives the server owner a few useful settings to better configure a new server.
Update 17-12-2018
I will no longer be maintaining/supporting this resource. The GitHub repo has been archived. Fork it if you want to update it yourself.
Features (configurable using convars)
Enable or disable PVP globally
Disable wanted level globally
Disable emergency services (no more ambulances responding to NPC corpses, etc.)
Force enable god mode (even if players disable it using a trainer)
Enable a whitelist. (Configurable whitelist kick message)
Enable a custom welcome message (only visible to the player who joined or, if configured, will be broadcasted to everyone)
Traffic density control (probably conflicts with ACL, if so turn this feature off!)
Crowd density control (same as traffic control, probably conflicts with ACL)
Unlimited stamina option (useful if you don’t have a trainer like Lambda Menu)
That’s all there is to it! (Remember, it’s very basic…)

Known Issues:
If you’ve configured your server to use sv_endpointprivacy true, entering your IP as a whitelist entry may not work. Solved in v3.0.1
Ghosting bug showing “ghost” cars when setting traffic density < 1.0 in vBasic v3.0.1. Fixed in v4.0
what’s with all these resources with separate config files and not just using convars to put in server.cfg and passing an event on initial client load if they need stuff on clients
It would be cool if you could add a ai control feature. Where you can control the ai as in fully disable and not sure if this is possible but out less traffic
Little buggy. It broke the damage system basically. I couldnt kill anyone with any pistols, it was weird. I put it on my test server and it did the same with no other resources, still did the same.
Also after respawning with my death script on you couldnt use weapon wheel and getting in cars you can do everything but move and turn the wheel. With it off you just dont respawn. Pretty clueless on what could be happening.
v2.1 (Hotfix) is now released, fixing a typo which caused god mode to not be enabled, causing some glitchyness.
@vizzra about the conflicting script: This is most likely caused because my script also re-sets the player health to 200 each time it drops below 200. This is because when switching to some NPC ped’s, the player health actually drops below 200 even with god mode enabled. There’s nothing I can do about it to make this compatible with your death script I’m afraid (unless I stop healing the player, which I’m not planning on doing. You can disable it yourself if you’d like though.)
Was just about to mention that I’ll still add it to my script though in case people don’t want to use ACL for some reason. However it will probably conflict with ACL!
