Integrations

msk_garage is built to slot into an existing server. Every integration below is optional and auto-detected (the script checks GetResourceState), so you only enable what you actually run.

AdvancedParking

AdvancedParking makes spawned vehicles persistent — it saves any vehicle a player interacts with and respawns it when a player gets close.

config/settings.lua

Config.AdvancedParking = true

When enabled:

• Park-in removes the stored vehicle through AdvancedParking (DeleteVehicleUsingData) instead of a plain DeleteEntity, so it is taken out of AdvancedParking's table and does not respawn.
• Impound park-out purges the old world copy from AdvancedParking's table (keepInWorld = false) before the fresh vehicle spawns. Without this step AdvancedParking would simply respawn the old car, leaving two vehicles.

tip

If you spot a vehicle "coming back" after it should have been removed, the cause is almost always an AdvancedParking integration that was disabled while the resource is still running. Keep Config.AdvancedParking in sync with whether AdvancedParking is actually started.

VehicleDeformation

Visual body damage (the actual dents, not just the health value) is not part of standard vehicle properties. To persist it, install VehicleDeformation.

• On park-in the script reads the deformation (GetVehicleDeformation) and stores it in the deformations column.
• On park-out it reapplies it (SetVehicleDeformation) once the client owns the entity.

No configuration is needed — the integration activates automatically when the VehicleDeformation resource is started. Without it, mechanical condition (engine/body/tank health, dirt) is still preserved through the vehicle properties; only the visual dents are skipped.

Why it "just works"

The deformation offsets are vector3 values that don't survive JSON storage intact, so the script flattens them to plain numbers on save and rebuilds real vector3s on load. This is handled internally — you don't have to do anything.

Vehicle Keys

Key holders (players who own a key but not the vehicle itself) can park the vehicle in and out.

config/settings.lua

Config.VehicleKeys = {
    enable = true,
    script = 'msk_vehiclekeys', -- msk_vehiclekeys | VehicleKeyChain | vehicles_keys
}
Config.parkoutWithKey = true     -- key holders may also retrieve from the impound

Supported out of the box (bridges live in server/keys/):

Config.VehicleKeys.script	Resource
msk_vehiclekeys	MSK VehicleKeys
VehicleKeyChain	Vehicle Key Chain
vehicles_keys	Jaksam Vehicle Keys

Adding your own

Drop a new adapter file into server/keys/ that returns the keys for a player, then set Config.VehicleKeys.script to its name. Only the three adapters above are officially supported.

Fuel

Fuel is read/written through two adapter functions, so any fuel script works. The default uses the vehicle state bag (compatible with ox_fuel and similar):

config/settings.lua

Config.SetFuel = function(vehicle, fuel)
    Entity(vehicle).state.fuel = fuel
end

Config.GetFuel = function(vehicle)
    return Entity(vehicle).state.fuel
end

Replace the bodies with your fuel resource's exports if needed (e.g. exports.LegacyFuel:SetFuel(vehicle, fuel)).

Target & TextUI

config/settings.lua

Config.TargetSystem = {
    enable = true,
    script = 'ox_target', -- adapter in client/target.lua
}

Config.defaultTextUI = true          -- built-in msk_core HelpNotification
Config.openTextUI = function(coloredText, uncoloredText)
    exports['okokTextUI']:Open(uncoloredText, 'darkblue', 'left')
end
Config.closeTextUI = function()
    exports['okokTextUI']:Close()
end

• Config.TargetSystem — when enabled, interaction runs through the target script (default ox_target). Add adapters for qb-target, qtarget, … in client/target.lua.
• Config.defaultTextUI — true uses the built-in msk_core HelpNotification; false routes prompts through your own Config.openTextUI / Config.closeTextUI.

Custom garages from other scripts

Other resources can open a fully custom garage/impound for a player. The definition must be registered server-side first (so it can't be forged), then the client opens the UI. See the full flow in Server Exports.
