Commands

Players

Command	Does
/mowerhud	Opens the HUD arranger: drag panels, hide panels, set opacity and colours
/mowerboard	Opens the daily leaderboard
/mowerabandon	Force-ends a stuck job. No pay, no deposit refund

/mowerhud also appears in Settings → Key Bindings → FiveM as "rc_mower: Customize HUD layout", unbound by default, so players can put it on a key.

Admins

Command	ACE	Does
/mower_edit	rc_mower.edit	Opens the yard editor and admin panel
/mower_edit_exit	rc_mower.edit	Closes the editor
/mower_edit_toggle_mode	rc_mower.edit	Switches the editor camera between locked and free flight. Bound to F by default
/mower_ring <h|spacing|alpha|tickEvery> <n>	rc_mower.edit	Tunes how the yard rings are drawn while the editor is open. Cosmetic

Server console

Only registered when Config.debugMode.debug = true. Leave debug off on a live server and these do not exist.

Command	Does
mowerboard_period <seconds>	Shortens the leaderboard period for testing. 0 restores the configured value
mowerboard_seed [rows]	Fills the current board with fake scores
mowerboard_clearseed	Removes the fake scores
mowerboard_add [id] [score]	Adds a score for a player

Permissions

ACE	Grants
rc_mower.edit	Opening the editor, creating and moving yards
rc_mower.admin	Saving changes in the admin panel

config.lua

The only settings that are not in the admin panel, because they are read once at boot. Changing any of these needs restart rc_mower.

Key	What it does
Config.debugMode.debug	Verbose logging, debug commands, and it bypasses the ACE checks. Must be false on a live server
Config.debugMode.debugLocationIndex	Locks the job to one yard while testing. 0 = random, as in normal play
Config.debugMode.bypassPermissions	Skips only the editor/admin ACE checks. Also for testing
Config.sqlDriver	oxmysql, mysql, or any driver exporting executeSync
Config.alternativeIdentifier	Which identifier player progress is keyed on (license, discord, steam, …). Changing this after players have progressed strands their XP
Config.standaloneSettings	payment = false skips the deposit charge and refund entirely — a no-economy sandbox mode
Config.job	enabled = true requires the player to hold jobName before they may start work
Config.toolItems	Inventory item names used for the HUD's tool artwork
Config.editorKeys	Keys used by the yard editor, and the labels shown on screen. Change the control ID and the label together
Config.levelUp	The level-up celebration: on/off, volume and timings
Config.finishLoot, Config.pileLoot	First-boot defaults for the two loot tables. After that the admin panel's values win

Files you may edit

Everything else in the resource is encrypted and cannot be edited.

Path	Contains
config.lua	The boot settings above
locale/locale.lua	Every player-facing string: blips, prompts, target options, notifications, and the interface
server/editable/kq_link.lua	Money, item and vehicle-key calls. Edit if you need something your framework does differently
server/editable/esx.lua	The ESX "player brings their own mower" lookup
server/editable/functions.lua	Identifier resolution, XP helpers, SQL wrappers, and DeleteVehiclesProperly — a stub for your own vehicle cleanup
client/editable/*.lua	Client-side job check and vehicle keys

Locale

locale/locale.lua is one flat table of strings. Colour codes like ~g~ are GTA text colours; ${MONEY} style tokens are substituted at runtime — keep them in the string. Interface strings are the nui.* keys.

Translating the script means editing this one file. Restart after saving.

Database

Created and migrated automatically on start. You do not need to touch it.

I want to	Do this
Undo one group of settings	Reset on that group in the admin panel
Take a yard out of rotation	Disable it on the yards map
Back up my yards	Export on the editor rail
Provision tables ahead of install	Run _installation_/rc_mower_schema.sql

The schema itself ships with the resource in that file. Resetting player progression is a direct database operation — take a backup first, and do it with the server stopped.

Expansion

rc_mower_addon is an optional separate resource that adds co-op crews, extra on-foot tools, customer mood, and hidden loot in leaf piles. Install it after rc_mower. Its settings are documented with that resource; the Pile tips tab in the admin panel feeds it.
