MSK VehicleKeys

A complete vehicle key system for ESX and QBCore. Lock and unlock vehicles with a command, a hotkey or a target — manage primary, secondary and temporary keys, hand keys to other players, exchange locks at a locksmith and even transfer ownership of a vehicle to another player.

Vehicle keys are stored metadata-based as unique items (every vehicle gets its own unique key item) and persisted in a MariaDB table that is created automatically on first start.

Features

• In-game admin dashboard (new in v3.0.0) — manage player keys, look up plates, run a locksmith, edit the access lists, change every setting and control dashboard access, all live from a React NUI with a group/permission system (see Admin Dashboard)
• (Un)lock vehicles via command, hotkey or target (ox_target)
• Seat selection — choose which seat to enter when using the target (ox_target)
• Keys menu opened by command or hotkey
• Three key types — Primary, Secondary and Temporary keys
• Unique key items — every vehicle has its own metadata-based key item
• Give keys to other players (secondary key, primary key or full ownership transfer)
• Transfer vehicle — sell/hand a vehicle including ownership to another player
• Exchange vehicle locks at a locksmith (removes every other player's key for that vehicle)
• Keyring system — store all keys in a second inventory (ox_inventory & jaksam_inventory)
• Job vehicles — players with a specific job (and optionally rank) can (un)lock matching vehicles
• Whitelist / Blacklist for models and plates
• Admin vehicles — only configured admin groups can (un)lock them
• Admin command to (un)lock any vehicle without a key
• Owner item enforcement (new) — optionally require even the vehicle owner to carry the key item (ownerNeedsItem)
• NPC vehicle locking with configurable carjacking probability
• Version checker and a full export API (client & server)
