Integration Examples

Race Event Integration

-- Start of special race event
local function StartDragRace()
    -- Allow double clutching for drag races
    exports['legends_raceessentials']:toggleDoubleClutchBlock(false)
 
    -- Increase slipstream for excitement
    exports['legends_raceessentials']:setSlipstreamMultiplier(2.0)
 
    -- Notify players
    TriggerEvent('chat:addMessage', {
        args = {'RACE', 'Double clutching enabled! Slipstream boosted!'}
    })
end
 
-- End of race event
local function EndDragRace()
    -- Restore normal settings
    exports['legends_raceessentials']:toggleDoubleClutchBlock(true)
    exports['legends_raceessentials']:setSlipstreamMultiplier(1.5)
end

Zone-Based Slipstream

-- Disable slipstream in city zones
local inCityZone = false
 
CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Wait(1000)
        local coords = GetEntityCoords(PlayerPedId())
 
        -- Check if in city zone (example coords)
        local inZone = coords.x > -1000 and coords.x < 1000 and
                       coords.y > -1000 and coords.y < 1000
 
        if inZone and not inCityZone then
            inCityZone = true
            exports['legends_raceessentials']:toggleSlipstream(false)
        elseif not inZone and inCityZone then
            inCityZone = false
            exports['legends_raceessentials']:toggleSlipstream(true)
        end
    end
end)

Admin Commands

-- Admin command to toggle double clutching
RegisterCommand('toggleclutch', function(source, args)
    local state = args[1] == 'on'

    print('Double clutching ' .. (state and 'enabled' or 'blocked'))
end, false)
 
-- Admin command to set slipstream power
