Commands
📋 Command Overview
Koja-Crafting provides two admin commands for managing player progression and blueprints:
| Command | Purpose | Permission | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
/addblueprint | Grant blueprint to player | Admin | [playerID] [item] |
/addexp | Give experience to player | Admin | [playerID] [amount] |
🔐 Permission System
Who Can Use Commands?
Commands are restricted to players with admin permissions. Access is controlled by Config.AdminGroups:
-- In shared/config.lua
Config.AdminGroups = { 'admin', 'owner', 'superadmin', 'god' }
How it works:
- Script checks player's job/group from framework (ESX/QBCore)
- If player's group matches any in
Config.AdminGroups, command executes - If no match, player receives permission denied message
Configuration Examples:
-- ESX Standard
Config.AdminGroups = { 'admin', 'superadmin', 'owner' }
-- QBCore Standard
Config.AdminGroups = { 'admin', 'god' }
-- Custom Setup
Config.AdminGroups = { 'moderator', 'admin', 'developer', 'owner' }
-- Restricted (Owners only)
Config.AdminGroups = { 'owner' }
For detailed permission setup, see Admin Permissions.
