Here are the most common questions and answers about Syntax PauseMenu. If your issue isn't listed here, feel free to reach out via Discord.

🤔 Frequently Asked Questions

❓ What frameworks are supported?

Syntax PauseMenu supports the following frameworks:

ESX Legacy (Latest versions)
QBCore (Latest versions)
Auto-detection mode that automatically identifies your framework

The script uses Config.Framework = 'auto' by default, which will automatically detect your framework. You can also manually set it to 'esx' or 'qbcore' if needed.

❓ How do I open the configuration menu?

The pause menu can be opened in several ways:

Default Key: Press ESCAPE (configurable in Config.OpenKey)

Programmatically: Use the client event:

TriggerEvent('syntax_pausemenu:client:openMenu')

Command: You can add a custom command in your server resources

To change the open key, modify Config.OpenKey in the configuration file.

❓ Do notifications save after a server restart?

No, the pause menu data is session-based and does not persist after server restarts. This includes:

Player information cache
Menu state
Announcement rotation position

However, all configuration settings persist since they're stored in the config file. The menu will reload with your configured settings on each server restart.

❓ Is it possible to customize themes or colors?

Yes! The pause menu is highly customizable:

CSS Customization:

Edit nui/style.css to change colors, fonts, and layouts

Modify announcement colors in the config:

color = "#FFD700",
backgroundColor = "rgba(255, 215, 0, 0.1)"

Logo Customization:

Replace nui/assets/logo.png with your custom logo
Configure in Config.Logo settings

Audio Customization:

Replace sound files in nui/assets/
Configure in Config.Sounds settings

❓ Does this work with OneSync Infinity?

Yes! Syntax PauseMenu is fully compatible with OneSync Infinity and includes several optimizations:

✅ Optimized for high player counts
✅ Efficient data synchronization
✅ Minimal server performance impact
✅ Built-in performance controls

For servers with high player counts, consider adjusting:

Config.Performance = {
    updateInterval = 2000  -- Update every 2 seconds instead of 1
}

❓ How do I add custom sounds?

To add custom sounds to your pause menu:

Add MP3 files to nui/assets/ folder

Update the config:

Config.Sounds = {
    enabled = true,
    customSound = {
        file = 'my_custom_sound.mp3',
        volume = 0.5
    }
}

Call the sound in your code:

-- From client-side
TriggerEvent('syntax_pausemenu:client:playSound', 'customSound')

Supported formats: Only MP3 files are supported for maximum compatibility.

❓ Can I add custom buttons to the menu?

Absolutely! You can add custom buttons to the side menu:

Config.SideButtons = {
    -- Existing buttons...
    {
        name = 'teleport',
        label = 'teleport',
        icon = 'fas fa-map-marker-alt',
        enabled = true,
        action = 'teleport',
        confirmDialog = false
    }
}

Then handle the action in your client script:

RegisterNetEvent('syntax_pausemenu:client:buttonAction')
AddEventHandler('syntax_pausemenu:client:buttonAction', function(action)
    if action == 'teleport' then
        -- Your custom teleport code here
    end
end)

❓ How do I configure Discord webhooks?

To set up Discord logging:

Create a webhook in your Discord channel
Copy the webhook URL

Configure in the script:

Config.Discord = {
    enabled = true,
    webhookURL = 'https://discord.com/api/webhooks/YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL',
    botName = 'Pause Menu Logger',
    logActions = {
        buttonClick = true,
        disconnect = true
    }
}

What gets logged:

Player disconnections
Button clicks (optional)
Menu usage statistics
