Metal Detecting

Equip your players with one of 5 custom metal detector props and send them across the map to hunt for buried loot. We included over 50+ preconfigured items to discover, paired with a built-in leveling system and a dedicated shop to sell the findings. While criminal activities dominate most servers, engaging civil activities like treasure hunting keep players logged on.

Players follow the distinct audio beeps of their hardware to zero in on underground valuables. Every tier of detector brings unique search radiuses, cooldowns, and specific loot pools.

Features List:

  • Open source function files
  • Each Metal Detector has a unique & configurable radius
  • Customize all animations & props
  • Customize the experience required to reach each level
  • Customize which Metal Detector belongs to which level
  • Each Metal Detector has unique & configurable cooldown

  1. Audit the package and requirements

    Open the supplied documentation before moving files or changing the database. Build the install order from the package, not from assumptions.

    • Identify the actual resource folder, required dependencies, and supported framework version.
    • Locate any SQL, configuration examples, permissions, or optional integrations.
    • Check whether the documentation requires a specific start order.

    Ready when Every dependency and required file has a place in your install plan.

  2. Create a rollback point

    Prepare the server so the change can be reversed cleanly if the resource conflicts with your current stack.

    • Keep an untouched copy of the downloaded package.
    • Back up the database and every configuration file you will edit.
    • Use a test server or schedule a maintenance window before changing production.

    Ready when You can restore the previous database, files, and configuration.

  3. Install in the documented order

    Apply only the changes supplied for this resource, keeping dependency and startup order intact.

    • Place the resource folder where your server loads resources, without renaming it unless instructed.
    • Install dependencies first, then import included SQL once and review configuration values.
    • Add the documented resource name to the server startup configuration after its dependencies.

    Ready when The resource starts without missing files, exports, tables, or dependencies.

  4. Verify the complete player flow

    Restart the test server, watch both server and client consoles, and exercise the resource before opening it to players.

    • Test the main workflow with an authorized player and a player without permission.
    • Reconnect and restart once to confirm saved state and startup behavior.
    • Review console output again before promoting the same configuration to production.

    Complete when The intended flow works twice with no new console errors.

We are currently in the middle of migrating our server setup from esx to qbox, so having a script with open source bridge was very important for us. On our previous esx build we had an old free treasure hunt resource that was causing constant red errors in console whenever players tried to dig on non-valid soil. Decided to buy this metal detecting script to replace it completely. The upgrade is night and day. Setup took around 15 minutes, and changing framework configs during our test wipes was effortless because of the bridge. The audio beeps and props work without issues, and having 5 tiers of detectors gives our civs actual progression. We tuned the loot table a bit so high level detectors drop better items. Very solid resource so far, zero console errors since we dropped it in.

Picked this up about a month before we ended up shutting down our city. We were trying to give our civilian playerbase more stuff to do outside of standard group jobs, but this just fell completely flat with our community. Installed easily enough and the audio cue system works fine tech-wise, but after the first night almost nobody touched it again. The loop of walking around listening for beeps to level up detectors just couldn't compete with the heist and drug stuff on our server. Even after lowering the XP grind and adding custom shop payouts to make it more profitable, players complained it was tedious and went right back to criminal RP. Script itself ran fine without throwing errors, but for our player count it ended up being a wasted purchase that did nothing to hold civ activity before we closed up shop.
