Installation

Pond Cafe installation steps — items, job, stash, startup.

First install the general dependencies. Then:

Place the folder

Place the wentus-pondcafe folder under resources/[wentus]/.

Add Items

Paste the contents of items-qbox.lua into the table in ox_inventory/data/items.lua.

Paste the contents of items.lua into qb-core/shared/items.lua.

Copy the images from assets/images/ → into your inventory's image folder.

Add Job

Add the pondcafe job to your framework — the location depends on the framework (same as the inventory):

qbx_core/shared/jobs.lua — job key ['pondcafe'], numeric grade keys [0]:

['pondcafe'] = {
    label = "Pond Cafe",
    defaultDuty = true,
    offDutyPay = false,
    grades = {
        [0] = { name = 'Waiter',  payment = 50  },
        [1] = { name = 'Barista', payment = 75  },
        [2] = { name = 'Cook',    payment = 100 },
        [3] = { name = 'Manager', payment = 125 },
        [4] = { name = 'Owner',   isboss = true, payment = 150 },
    },
},

qb-core/shared/jobs.lua — unbracketed job key pondcafe, string grade keys ['0']:

pondcafe = {
    label = "Pond Cafe",
    defaultDuty = true,
    offDutyPay = false,
    grades = {
        ['0'] = { name = 'Waiter',  payment = 50  },
        ['1'] = { name = 'Barista', payment = 75  },
        ['2'] = { name = 'Cook',    payment = 100 },
        ['3'] = { name = 'Manager', payment = 125 },
        ['4'] = { name = 'Owner',   isboss = true, payment = 150 },
    },
},

In ESX, jobs live in the database (jobs + job_grades tables). Add pondcafe via SQL or with an ESX job tool.

Bank account

Set Config.Base.Events.ManagementMoney according to your banking resource. If you use qb-banking, the business account is created automatically.

Config + start

config.lua → make your Config.Base framework selection (Configuration). Add to server.cfg:

ensure wentus-pondcafe

When the server starts, you should see Wentus-PondCafe: Started in the console. If a missing dependency warning appears, fix Config.Base.

Stashes

Pond Cafe automatically registers (ox_inventory) or creates (qb-inventory) two stashes:

Stash	Config key	Access
Service counter	`Config.Settings.StandStash`	`pondcafe` job only
Cold storage	`Config.Settings.FreezerStash`	`pondcafe` job only

Size: Config.Settings.StashSettings (slots, weight).
