Job Restrictions
Lock shops to jobs and minimum grades.
Any shop can be restricted to one or more jobs, optionally with a minimum grade. Players who don't qualify can't open it or buy from it.
By default a shop has no jobs, so everyone can use it.
Restrict to one or more jobs
Add a jobs array of job names:
config.lua
jobs = { 'police', 'ambulance' },
Anyone with one of those jobs (any grade) can use the shop.
Minimum grade for all listed jobs
Add minJobGrade to require a minimum grade across all listed jobs:
config.lua
jobs = { 'police' },
minJobGrade = 2, -- police grade 2 or higher
Per-job minimum grade
For different grades per job, use the table form. Each entry can carry its own minGrade:
config.lua
jobs = {
{ name = 'police', minGrade = 2 },
{ name = 'ambulance', minGrade = 0 },
},
If an entry has no
minGrade, it falls back to the shop's minJobGrade (or 0 if that's unset too).Where to put it
These fields go on a shop location or a custom shop:
config.lua
{
id = 'police_store',
label = 'Police Supply',
coords = vector4(452.3, -980.0, 30.7, 90.0),
catalog = 'convenience',
jobs = { { name = 'police', minGrade = 1 } },
paymentMethods = { 'card' },
},
How it's enforced
- The client hides the shop's interaction from players who can't access it.
- The server re-validates job + grade on purchase, so it can't be bypassed.
- Grade is read from your framework (QBox/QBCore/ESX) automatically.
Use the exact job name as it exists in your framework (e.g.
police, ambulance, mechanic). A wrong name means no one qualifies.
