Smash N Grab 2.0

Petty crime is the economic floor of a good criminal RP ecosystem — the activity that new players can access before they're connected to organized operations. Smashing a car window and rifling through the glove box is exactly that kind of accessible, low-barrier crime. This FiveM car looting script adds that mechanic with enough depth to stay interesting: variable loot by vehicle class, NPC reactions, minigame break-ins, and police dispatch integration so officers actually have something to respond to.

How Looting Works

Loot spawns inside NPC vehicles based on configurable odds — not every car has something worth taking, which keeps the activity from becoming trivially profitable. When loot does spawn, it's placed by seat position, meaning players have a reason to check the back seat and trunk rather than just hitting one interaction point and walking away. Bigger vehicles like pickup trucks can generate larger crate items, adding genuine variety across vehicle classes.

• Configurable loot spawn odds — per vehicle class, per model, or per map location

• Seat-based loot placement encouraging thorough vehicle searches

• Bigger crates spawn in larger vehicles (pickups, vans, trucks)

• Openable container items with configurable contents — currency, items, or both

• Built-in minigame mechanic for the vehicle break-in

• NPC reactions: vehicle owners will confront or alert police if present

• Police dispatch integration via kq_link for officer response

• Minimum police online requirement before loot spawns — prevents unchallenged grinding

• No networked entity spawning — avoids hitting server entity limits

• Loot state synchronized across all players

Performance Architecture

The script avoids spawning networked entities entirely — loot is handled client-side with server-authoritative synchronization. That means no entity limit pressure regardless of how many vehicles are active in the session. Loot state is still visible to all players simultaneously, so there's no desync between who sees what inside a car.

Framework Compatibility

Runs standalone with no framework dependency. Also compatible with ESX, QBCore, Qbox, vRP, and TMC. The police online minimum and dispatch integration require kq_link, which is provided. Everything else configures through the main config file — loot tables, spawn odds, NPC aggression thresholds, and timing.
