Theme

Visual styling is defined in ui.config.lua as inline CSS strings. The file contains two complete theme objects: theme_light and theme_dark. The interface applies whichever theme the player has selected in the Settings panel.

Structure

UI = {}

UI.themes = {
    theme_light = {
        listing = {
            cars  = { main = "background: ...", price = "color: ...", ... },
            jobs  = { ... },
            items = { ... },
            -- other categories follow the same shape
        },
        desktop      = "background: ...",
        navButtons   = { home = "...", cars = "...", ... },
        chat         = { sidebar = "...", message = "...", ... },
        newAd        = { background = "...", input = { ... }, ... },
        notification = "background: ...",
        -- ...
    },
    theme_dark = {
        -- identical structure, different color values
    },
}

Every value is an inline CSS string passed directly to a style attribute. Any valid CSS for that context is accepted.

Player theme toggle

Players switch between dark and light theme from the Settings panel inside the marketplace. The selection persists per player. The dark toggle maps to UI.themes.theme_dark and the light toggle maps to UI.themes.theme_light.

If rc_core is running on your server, the theme selection is synchronized across all RobiCore scripts. Without rc_core, the selection is stored locally per resource.
