A framework-agnostic crutch system for FiveM. Players use an inventory crutch item to limp, EMS can prescribe and remove crutches on patients, and a hospital medic NPC removes crutches in exchange for money. Drop-in compatible with any ambulance job that sets a recognized job name.

What you get

  • Works on Qbox, QBCore, ESX, and ND_Core — auto-detected
  • Inventory bridge prefers ox_inventory; QB / ESX legacy inventories supported via the snippets in install/items.lua
  • Usable crutch item — toggle on/off with a configurable use count before the item breaks
  • EMS prescribe / remove — third-eye option on any player; takes a crutch from EMS inventory and force-equips the patient for a configurable duration
  • Auto-force export — ForceCrutch so any ambulance job can apply a crutch after check-in or respawn
  • Hospital medic NPC — spawns at every configured medical center, removes the crutch for money (or for free), server-validated
  • React + Tailwind NUI — medic dialog, EMS menu, patient HUD, admin panel; each panel can be turned off independently
  • Admin tooling — /addcrutch, /removecrutch, /crutchadmin (all command names configurable)
  • Rate-limited & server-validated — every player-triggered event is throttled and re-checked server-side; spoofing NUI events can’t bypass the gates
  • escrow_ignore on config.lua and the bridge files so your settings and any custom framework / inventory adapters survive updates

​
Compatibility

  • Any ambulance resource — the bridge only reads playerData.job.name. As long as your ambulance job sets a name listed in Config.AllowedJobs, EMS interactions work. No hardcoding to a specific ambulance script.
  • Legacy crutch resources — the hospital NPC also fires removal hooks for wasabi_crutch, ak47_crutch, and ak47_qb_crutch (configurable). Lets you run this alongside another crutch script during a migration.
