Access

get var-tattooshop v2 try it on the test server

By default everything is open to everyone. Config.Access lets you gate three levels independently.

lua

Config.Access = {
    modes = { vanilla = 'all', image = 'all', freehand = 'all' },
    collections = {}, -- ['mpheist4_overlays'] = 'vip'
    tattoos = {},     -- ['bea_m_back_000'] = 'vip'
}

Any value other than 'all' requires the player to hold that group.

Examples

Freehand drawing reserved to VIPs:

lua

Config.Access = {
    modes = { vanilla = 'all', image = 'all', freehand = 'vip' },
}

A whole collection reserved, and one specific tattoo sold separately:

lua

Config.Access = {
    modes = { vanilla = 'all', image = 'all', freehand = 'all' },
    collections = {
        ['mpheist4_overlays'] = 'vip',
    },
    tattoos = {
        ['bea_m_back_000'] = 'gold',
    },
}

How a group is checked

A player passes if either is true:

they have the ace permission vartattoo.<group> (so vip becomes vartattoo.vip)
their framework group matches (ESX group, QBCore permission)

Add the ace in your server.cfg:

code

add_ace group.vip vartattoo.vip allow

The check runs again on the server when the tattoo is submitted, not only when the UI is built. Hiding an entry in the menu is never the only thing standing between a player and a locked collection.

Standalone servers

With no framework, wire your own group logic:

lua

Config.Standalone = {
    PlayerInGroup = function(src, group)
        -- return true if src belongs to `group`
    end,
    IsAdmin = function(src) return false end,
    GetMoney = function(src, account) return 0 end,
    RemoveMoney = function(src, amount, account) return true end,
    Notify = function(src, msg, kind) end,
}

Leave them nil and the shop is simply free and fully open.
