Realistic Towing Mechanics
The script simulates authentic towing operations with proper physics and sequencing. Drivers must position the tow truck correctly, lower the flatbed or attach the wheel lift, engage the winch to pull vehicles onto the bed, secure the load with chains, and raise the bed before driving. The system prevents common exploits like instant teleportation or floating vehicles, requiring players to follow realistic procedures. Towed vehicles maintain their damage state and properties during transport.
Customization Options
- Configurable tow truck models supporting custom vehicle addons
- Adjustable service rates based on vehicle class, distance, or time
- Custom notification systems (native, mythic_notify, ox_lib, or custom)
- Multilingual support with language files for international servers
- Discord webhook integration for logging service calls and completions
- Editable impound lot locations and capacity limits
Police & Law Enforcement Integration
Law enforcement can request towing services for traffic stops, accident scenes, or illegal parking enforcement. Police-requested tows can include higher priority, guaranteed payment from department budgets, and automatic impound processing. The system logs all police-initiated tows for department records and audit trails. Officers can mark vehicles for impound, and tow drivers receive instant dispatch with official authority to recover the vehicle.
What Makes It Stand Out
Unlike basic vehicle delete scripts, 0r TowTruck creates a complete towing industry with realistic mechanics and business opportunities. The flatbed physics accurately simulate weight distribution affecting handling, the winch system allows recovery from difficult positions, and the service call system generates organic player interactions. The impound integration creates economic consequences for illegal parking, and the business management features let players build towing empires. This script transforms vehicle recovery from an admin task into engaging civilian roleplay.
Advanced Features
- Heavy Vehicle Towing - Special tow trucks can recover buses, trucks, and large vehicles
- Multi-Vehicle Transport - Larger flatbeds can transport multiple motorcycles or small cars
- Off-Road Recovery - All-terrain tow trucks for vehicles stuck in wilderness areas
- Accident Scene Management - Handle multiple vehicles at crash sites
- Breakdown Simulation - Vehicles can randomly break down creating service calls
- Roadside Assistance - Quick repairs without towing for minor issues
Economic Impact
The towing system creates multiple revenue streams and money sinks enhancing your server economy. Drivers earn income from service fees, impound fees generate city revenue, vehicle owners pay retrieval charges, and towing businesses employ workers. The system encourages careful driving to avoid impound fees, creates jobs for civilian players, and adds realistic consequences for vehicle abandonment. Businesses can negotiate exclusive contracts with police or mechanic shops for steady income.
Roleplay Scenarios
This script enables diverse scenarios including roadside breakdowns requiring towing to repair shops, police calling for accident scene clearing, repo men recovering vehicles from delinquent owners, towing company competition for service territories, corrupt tow drivers demanding cash payments, and impound lot operators managing vehicle auctions. Mechanics can partner with towing companies, insurance adjusters can inspect towed vehicles, and criminals can intercept tows to steal valuable cars.
Admin Controls
- Force-untow command to release stuck vehicles
- Manual impound vehicle command for administrative towing
- View all active towing operations in real-time
- Adjust service rates and fees without server restart
- Override impound releases for special situations
- Generate service calls for events or testing
Performance Optimization
Despite complex vehicle attachment physics, the script maintains excellent performance through efficient network synchronization and client-side prediction. The system only tracks actively towed vehicles, automatically cleans up completed jobs, and uses optimized attachment methods that don't strain server resources. Multiple simultaneous towing operations run smoothly without frame drops or desync issues.
Support & Updates
Includes comprehensive documentation with installation instructions, configuration guide, troubleshooting tips, and framework integration examples. Regular updates add features, fix bugs, and maintain compatibility with latest FiveM and framework versions. Lifetime access to all future enhancements and improvements.
