🧱Placeable Crafting Tables Guideled

Placeable tables are crafting benches that players can place and interact with anywhere in the world. These are ideal for systems like portable weapon benches, temporary workstations, or black-market crafting setups.

This guide walks you through how to configure them, assign craftable items, and make them usable through inventory items.

🛠️ What Are Placeable Tables?

They are configured under:

Config.PlaceableTables

Each entry defines:

• The name of the item that places the table

• The prop model used

• The list of items that can be crafted at the placed table

Once placed, players can interact with the bench, use the crafting UI, and then the table will despawn after a configurable amount of time (or stay forever if configured to do so).

🔧 How to Add a Placeable Table

Here's an example configuration:

Config.PlaceableTables = {
    ["table_weapon"] = { -- Item name used to place this table
        Label = "Weapon Crafting Table",
        BenchProp = "gr_prop_gr_bench_02a",

        ["Items"] = {
            ["WEAPON_PISTOL"] = {
                Label = "Pistol",
                DefaultQuantity = 1,
                XPEnable = true,
                Level = 1,
                xpGain = 3,
                UseBlueprint = true,
                ShowOnList = false,
                RemoveBlueprint = true,
                BlueprintItem = "blueprint_pistol",
                ConsumeDurability = 0,

                ["Material"] = {
                    ["rubber"] = { Label = "Rubber", amount = 1 },
                },

                ["Prop"] = {
                    model = "w_pi_pistol",
                    offset = vector3(1.3, 0.0, -0.3),
                    rotation = vector3(0, 0, 0)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

🧾 Step-by-Step Setup

1️⃣ Create the Placeable Item

Make sure an item exists in your inventory system with the same name as the config key (e.g., table_weapon). When used, it will spawn the bench.

You can name the item however you like:

• table_weapon, portable_bench, crafting_kit, etc.

📦 If using ox_inventory or qs-inventory, make sure the item is properly registered in your items.lua or database with usable set to true.

---

2️⃣ Set the Table Label and Model

• Label: The name shown to the player when interacting with the bench.

• BenchProp: The model of the table that appears when placed.

---

3️⃣ Assign Craftable Items

Just like PreSetTables, each bench can have its own crafting recipes defined under ["Items"].

These support:

• XP requirements

• Blueprint usage

• Item durability (if using ox_inventory)

• Visual props shown on the table

---

4️⃣ Configure Table Lifespan

Control how long a placed bench stays in the world:

Config.LifetimeofBench = 999999

• This value is in seconds.

• Use a high value to keep it indefinitely, or a lower value for realism (e.g., 600 for 10 minutes).

---

🎮 How Players Use It

1. Player obtains the crafting table item (e.g., table_weapon)

2. They use the item from their inventory

3. A crafting bench spawns in front of them

4. They can walk up and use the bench via target interaction

---

🧠 Tips

• Combine placeable benches with black-market systems or reward crates

• Restrict some benches to certain jobs or gangs by controlling who can receive the item

• Perfect for immersive, mobile crafting mechanics in survival, gang, or RP server.
