Installation

Installation Guide – v42-Terminal

Step 1: Ensure All Dependencies Are Installed

Before proceeding, confirm that all required dependencies for your framework (QBCore or ESX) are:

• Installed

• Running properly

• Using the latest stable versions

✅ This script is standalone, but for full functionality, you’ll want ps-dispatch or an equivalent dispatch system if alerts are enabled.

---

Step 2: Install the Resource

1. Drag and drop the v42-terminal folder into your server’s resources directory.

2. Add the following line to your server.cfg after all dependencies:

ensure v42-terminal

---

Step 3: Add Items & Images

❗ Not required for this resource unless integrated with inventory or loot systems you create afterward.

If using item-based triggers (e.g., a "laptop" or "hacking device"), make sure those items are defined in your inventory system and UI.

Step 4: Import SQL Files

This script does not require SQL files by default.

---

Step 5: Configure the Script

Open config.lua and configure the following options:

• Config.CoreName – Set to your framework core (e.g., 'qb-core')

• Config.CopJob – Job name for police (e.g., 'police')

• Config.SendPoliceAlert – true or false to enable alerts

• Config.PoliceMessageTile – Dispatch title (e.g., 'Silent Alarm')

• Config.PoliceMessage – Dispatch message text

• Config.AlertType – Set to 'ps' for ps-dispatch, or leave default

---

Step 6: Using the Export

Call the terminal hack minigame from your own scripts using the following export:

exports['v42-terminal']:TerminalHack(function(success)
    if success then
        -- Do something (e.g., give loot, open vault)
    else
        -- Failed: send alert, notify police, etc.
    end
end, 60) -- 60 seconds to complete the hack

🧪 Example command /terminalhack is included for testing. 🧹 Remove example.lua from the client/ folder if you no longer need the demo.

---

Step 7: Start or Restart the Server

To apply all changes:

• Run the following in your server console or F8:

  refresh
  ensure v42-terminal

• Or restart your server

Notes

• Standalone and lightweight

• Alerts work best with ps-dispatch or a custom system

• Great for banks, tech heists, terminals, or access control systems

• Fully adaptable via exports — you control the outcome logic
