Installation
JG MechanicPurchase on the JG store
Download & unzip
Unzip the jg-mechanic-bundle and open it - the folders inside are the resources for your server.
Add the resources to your server
Drag all 4 folders (jg-mechanic, jg-mechanic-props, jg-vehiclemileage and jg-textui) into a new folder called [jg] within your server's resources folder.
If you don't plan on using our new default Text UI, you don't need to transfer it to your server. You can choose a different Text UI script in the config.
Update your server.cfg
In your server.cfg, add a new line after all your other resources have started:
ensure [jg]Set up inventory items
Navigate into the install folder, and then into the inventory folder. Follow the guide for your chosen inventory - the item images are in the images folder.
Configure the script
Inside the config folder, config.lua is the core configuration - most integrations (framework, text UI, notifications and more) are automatically detected. The main things to customise are mechanic locations, core pricing, servicing and tuning options.
The 3 other config files fine-tune how cosmetics, servicing & tuning work in your city. They are heavily commented, but can be a little complicated - only modify them if you're comfortable with Lua. See Pricing, Servicing and Tuning before changing those files.
Set up jobs and banking
Follow Job Setup for every owned mechanic location.
If Config.UseFrameworkJobs = true, set up employee management through your framework's boss menu or a compatible third-party boss menu. JG Mechanic doesn't show its built-in Management app when you use framework jobs.
If Config.UseFrameworkJobs = true, create a society bank account for every unique mechanic job before taking work orders. JG Mechanic doesn't create accounts in third-party banking resources.
