Handcuffing individuals in the ESX Police Job resource for FiveM can be an essential part of role-playing scenarios, but sometimes you might want to allow players to move even when they’re handcuffed. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of enabling movement for handcuffed individuals in ESX Police Job. We’ll also show you how to disable specific controls to enhance the realism of the situation.
Step 1: Locate the Relevant Code
To begin, you’ll need to find the code responsible for handcuffed player behavior. In your esx_policejob/client/main.lua
file, look for the following section:
TaskPlayAnim(playerPed, 'mp_arresting', 'idle', 8.0, -8, -1, 49, 0, 0, 0, 0)
SetEnableHandcuffs(playerPed, true)
SetPedCanPlayGestureAnims(playerPed, false)
FreezeEntityPosition(playerPed, true)
This code handles player behavior when handcuffed.
Step 2: Allow Movement When Handcuffed
To enable movement while handcuffed, you’ll need to modify the code. Change the following line:
FreezeEntityPosition(playerPed, true)
to:
FreezeEntityPosition(playerPed, false)
This change will allow players to move even when they are handcuffed. The modified code should now look like this:
TaskPlayAnim(playerPed, 'mp_arresting', 'idle', 8.0, -8, -1, 49, 0, 0, 0, 0)
SetEnableHandcuffs(playerPed, true)
SetPedCanPlayGestureAnims(playerPed, false)
FreezeEntityPosition(playerPed, false)
Step 3: Disable Specific Controls
If you want to add an extra layer of realism by preventing certain actions while a player is handcuffed, you can disable specific controls. To do this, add the following code to your script:
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
while true do
Citizen.Wait(10)
if IsHandcuffed then
DisableControlAction(0, 142, true) -- MeleeAttackAlternate
DisableControlAction(0, 30, true) -- MoveLeftRight
DisableControlAction(0, 31, true) -- MoveUpDown
DisableControlAction(0, 24, true) -- Shoot
DisableControlAction(0, 92, true) -- Shoot in car
DisableControlAction(0, 75, true) -- Leave Vehicle
end
end
end)
This code will prevent players from performing actions like attacking, shooting, or leaving a vehicle while handcuffed.
Conclusion
With these modifications, you can enhance the realism of your ESX Police Job resource in FiveM by allowing players to move when handcuffed and restricting specific actions. This can lead to more immersive role-playing scenarios and a better gaming experience for all involved.
Remember to test your changes thoroughly to ensure they work as intended in your specific server setup. Happy gaming!
