Essential scripts for a roleplay server

You do not need to install everything on day one. A roleplay server works better if you add systems in order, starting with what players use constantly.

1. The everyday basics

These are the systems everyone uses from the moment they join:

• Inventory. Players open it constantly. See inventory scripts.
• HUD and notifications. They show what is going on at all times.
• Character selection and pause menu. They are the first things every player sees.
• Phone. It is the main communication tool. See phone scripts.

2. Economy and jobs

They give players something to do and a reason to come back:

• Banking and billing.
• Jobs and player-run businesses.
• Dealership and garages.

3. Factions

• Police and emergency services. They are at the heart of much of the roleplay. See police scripts.
• Illegal activities. Gangs, drugs and heists give police work its purpose. See illegal scripts.

Keep both sides balanced: if one far outweighs the other, the roleplay suffers.

4. What makes your server unique

Once the above works well, add what sets you apart:

• Housing to give each player their own space.
• MLO maps to create unique places.
• Races and other activities.

Tips before you buy

• Check compatibility with your framework.
• Install one at a time and test each script, following this guide.
• Avoid piling up scripts that do the same thing: they often conflict.
• Read the documentation before deciding.
