No complicated setup is required, and most of the customization can be done directly through the `config.lua` file. *** ## Step 1 : Resource Installation Start by dragging the `stalk_medic` folder into your server’s `resources` directory. Once the resource has been added, open your `server.cfg` file and add the following line: ``` ensure stalk_medic ``` After saving the changes, restart your server. *** ## Step 2 : Required Dependencies Before starting the resource, make sure the following dependencies are correctly installed on your server: * `es_extended` * `ox_inventory` * `oxmysql` * `PolyZone` The script relies on these resources for: * player management, * database interactions, * inventory handling, * and medical zone detection. Without these dependencies, the resource will not function correctly. *** ## Step 3 : Main Script Configuration All major configuration settings are located inside: ``` stalk_medic/shared/config.lua ``` From this file, you can customize: * death timers, * treatment prices, * hospital cooldowns, * NPC models, * interaction keys, * medic behavior, * animations, * notifications, * and all hospital zones. The default configuration already includes a fully working setup. *** ## Step 4 : Medical System Configuration The script includes two different medical systems: * hospital treatment, * and emergency medic assistance while dead. You can customize the treatment prices directly inside the configuration: ``` Config.HospitalHealPrice = 50Config.DeathMedicPrice = 75 ``` You can also modify the treatment duration: ``` Config.TreatmentDurationSeconds = 10 ``` This controls how long the healing animation and treatment process lasts. *** ## Step 5 : Death System Configuration The script includes a complete death screen and unconscious system. The default death timer is configured here: ``` Config.DeathTimerSeconds = 390 ``` During this time, players can: * wait for a medic, * request emergency treatment, * or respawn depending on your configuration. The system also includes: * voice mute while dead, * protected death states, * control disabling, * and anti-abuse protections. *** ## Step 6 : Hospital Zones Configuration The entire hospital system is based on configurable medical zones using `PolyZone`. Example: ``` Config.Zones = { { id = 'hospital_lossantos', label 'Los Santos Hospital', center = vector3(4565.0, -4883.0, 21.5), radius = 500.0, }} ``` Each zone can contain: * treatment interaction points, * beds, * medic NPCs, * cameras, * exits, * and respawn locations. You can create as many medical zones as you want by duplicating an existing zone configuration. *** ## Step 7 : NPC Configuration The script uses multiple NPCs for: * reception doctors, * treatment medics, * and death medics. Default models are configured here: ``` Config.Models = { ReceptionDoctor = 's_m_m_doctor_01', TreatmentDoctor = 's_m_m_paramedic_01', DeathMedic = 's_m_m_paramedic_01'} ``` You can freely replace these models with any GTA V ped model. The script also automatically protects NPCs against: * damage, * ragdoll, * despawning, * and unwanted player interactions. *** ## Step 8 : Interaction Keys All interaction keys are configurable inside the config file. Default controls: ``` Config.Keys = { Interact = 38, CallMedic = 45, Respawn = 73} ``` By default: * `E` is used for interactions, * `R` is used to call a medic, * `X` is used for respawn actions. You can fully customize these keybinds depending on your server setup. *** ## Step 9 : Medic Availability & Cooldowns The script includes: * automatic medic cooldowns, * unavailable schedules, * no-show chances, * and busy medic handling. Example: ``` Config.HospitalCareCooldownSeconds = 1200Config.DeathMedicNoShowChance = 6 ``` This prevents players from abusing the medical system while keeping the gameplay immersive. The cooldown data is automatically saved using the database table: ``` Config.CooldownTable = 'stalk_medic_cooldowns' ``` *** ## Step 10 : Notifications & Localization All notifications can be customized directly inside the configuration file. Example: ``` Config.Notifications = { NoMoney = 'You dont have enough money.', MedicComing = 'A medic is on their way.'} ``` You can translate or rewrite every notification to perfectly match your server style and language. *** ## Step 11 : Admin Features The script also includes administrator commands and protections. Administrators can: * revive players, * kill players, * bypass restrictions, * and manage emergency situations. Authorized licenses can be configured here: ``` Config.AdminLicenses = { ''} ``` *** ## Important Before updating the resource or modifying important settings, we strongly recommend creating a complete backup of your server and database. Even though the script is optimized and tested before release, backups remain essential to avoid issues caused by incorrect configurations or external conflicts. *** ## AI / Documentation Queries If some information is not directly available on this page, you can dynamically query the documentation using the `ask` parameter. Example: ``` GET https://docs.stalk.dev/stalk-medic/installation-guide.md?ask= ``` You can ask questions such as: * how to add a new hospital, * how to modify medic cooldowns, * how to change NPC positions, * how to customize the death system, * or how to configure treatment zones. The system will automatically return a direct answer along with the most relevant documentation sections.
