Universal Mechanic Workstation

One polished NUI for every service shop on your server — repair, performance tuning, and full cosmetic customization with server-authoritative pricing and persistent mods for player-owned vehicles.

One polished NUI for every service shop on the server — Benny's, dealership service bays, custom tuner garages, roadside vans. Repair, performance tuning and full cosmetic customisation of the nearest vehicle, with money charged authoritatively server-side and mods that persist for player-owned vehicles.

Built on the Mosley's / CEO-dashboard visual style (dark grouped sidebar, amber tuner accent) and the full mechanic icon pack.

Features

• Authoritative pricing — the NUI only displays prices; the server re-derives every charge from config.lua, so the UI can never spoof a price.
• Owned-vehicle persistence — changes to a player-owned car are saved via qbx_vehicles:SaveVehicle (falls back to writing the mods blob by plate).
• Works on any nearby car — takes network control of vehicles the operator doesn't own, so mechanics can service customers.

Install

1. Drop the rr-mechanic folder into your resources (it's already inside [custom], which is ensured as a group — it will load on next restart). Otherwise add ensure rr-mechanic to your server.cfg after ox_lib, qbx_core and qbx_vehicles.
2. Restart the server (or ensure rr-mechanic).
3. Open it with /mechanic (default).

Dependencies: ox_lib, qbx_core, qbx_vehicles (+ oxmysql). ox_target is optional (used only if a location enables a target zone).

Configuration (config.lua)

• Config.Brand — title, tagline and accent colour shown in the header. Rename per shop / per buyer; the accent recolours the whole UI live.
• Config.Jobs / Config.RequireOnDuty — who can operate it.
• Config.OpenForEveryone — true while testing (anyone can /mechanic); flip to false for live so only Config.Jobs can open it.
• Config.Command / Config.Keybind — the command + optional key.
• Config.Prices — authoritative price per action (0 = free).
• Config.Locations — add one entry per physical shop for a blip + a press-[E] marker and/or an ox_target zone. All locations open the same NUI.

Adding a shop location

Config.Locations = {
    {
        label  = "Benny's Original Motorworks",
        coords = vec3(-205.0, -1310.0, 31.3),
        jobs   = { 'mechanic', 'bennys' },
        blip   = { sprite = 446, color = 5, scale = 0.8 },
        marker = true,   -- press-[E] marker
        target = true,   -- ox_target zone (if ox_target is running)
    },
}

Opening it from other resources

The workstation is the single mechanic UI for the whole server. Open it from a ped, a phone app, another script, etc:

-- client
exports['rr-mechanic']:open()
-- or
TriggerEvent('rr-mechanic:client:open')

exports['rr-mechanic']:isOpen() returns whether it's currently open.

Notes

• Performance level ladders render dynamically from each vehicle's available mods, so a 4-tier car shows A/B/C/S and a higher-tier car shows up to S+.
• Cosmetic/body steps and most actions apply instantly with a toast; only Reset to Stock asks for confirmation.
• The price table and the operator job-check are validated again on the server for every charge — the client is never trusted.
