Setup script

  1. Ensure that the nss_skunk folder is in your resources folder.

  2. Rename config.demo.lua to config.lua and fill in the values.

  3. Add ensure nss_skunk to your server.cfg.

  4. Restart your server.

  5. Check if the database tables are created by the script to ensure all is fine.

Config.CustomClientEventNameToRemoveEffects

This property is optional, type is string, default value is nil.

Config.CustomClientEventNameToRemoveEffects defines an event name that is taken into account by nss_skunk on the client side. If, for example, another script fires an event, you can use it to listen for the event here and trigger all effects on the player to be removed. For example, if you have a script where the player gets into a bathtub and a client event is fired, you can listen to that client event name.

However, you can also simply define a client event name in nss_skunk and fire it in your other scripts if required.

Example on client side:

-- nss_skunk -> config.lua
Config.CustomClientEventNameToRemoveEffects = 'nss_skunk_remove_effects'

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- your client script (with message)
local custom_notify_title = 'Bath time'
local custom_notify_message = 'You feel refreshed and clean.'
TriggerEvent('nss_skunk:removeEffects', custom_notify_title, custom_notify_message)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- your client script (without message)
TriggerEvent('nss_skunk:removeEffects')

If you do not give a title and message then the language keys default_clear_all_effects_title and default_clear_all_effects_message will be used.

Example on server side:

-- nss_skunk -> config.lua
Config.CustomClientEventNameToRemoveEffects = 'nss_skunk_remove_effects'

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- your server script (with message)
local player = source -- or any other player
local custom_notify_title = 'Bath time'
local custom_notify_message = 'You feel refreshed and clean.'
TriggerClientEvent('nss_skunk_remove_effects', player, custom_notify_title, custom_notify_message)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- your server script (without message)
TriggerClientEvent('nss_skunk_remove_effects', player)

If you do not give a title and message then the language keys default_clear_all_effects_title and default_clear_all_effects_message will be used.

FAQ

Can rain wash off the scent?

Currently, not. We have not found a good way to detect if the player gets wet. If a player stands under a roof, the rain does not hit him, but we can not detect this currently. We can not detect if the player gets wet clothes.
