Info

By default; darkrp does not offer customization for food categories. Arivia has however added the ability to assign categories to food just like you can for entities, etc.

• Open lua\modules\arivia\cfg\sh_6_food.lua

• Locate the table cfg.food.categories

• Add new category (see example 1 below)

• Open your darkrp entities file that you wish to add the food item to

• Add new food item and assign category (see example 2 below)

Example

Example 1: sh_6_food.lua

cfg.food.categories =
{
    [ 'yum' ] =
    {
        name                = 'Yum',
        startExpanded       = true,
        sortOrder           = 1,
        tip                 = 'The good stuff',
    },
}

Example 2: entities.lua

DarkRP.createFood( 'Bunch of bananas',
{
    model       = "models/props/cs_italy/bananna_bunch.mdl",
    energy      = 20,
    price       = 20,
    category    = 'Yum',
} )

After following the steps above; restart the server and open your F4 menu. You should see the new category and your food item listed within it.

Notes

DarkRP does not handle adding new entities without a restart, and may error out. Ensure you always restart your server if adding new darkrp jobs / entities.
