Configuration

Everything cc_fishing exposes for tuning lives in shared/config.lua unless noted. Paths are relative to the resource root. Restart cc_fishing after editing.

Module toggles

cfg.modules. Flip any to false to disable that feature entirely — its NPCs, blips, target options, useable items, menu entries, and background loops all go dormant. Core fishing (the fishing NPC, casting, and selling fish) is always on.

cfg.modules = {
    pawnshop_ped = true,   -- the dedicated fish-selling NPC + blip
    anchor       = true,   -- boat anchor useable item
    boat_rentals = true,   -- rent/return boat + the menu entries for it
    nets         = true,   -- placeable fishing nets
    treasure     = true,   -- treasure hunts, maps, sunken safes
    logbook      = true,   -- logbook useable item
    tournaments  = {
        weekly = true,     -- rolling 7-day tournament
        daily  = true,     -- scheduled live daily events
    },
}

Toggle	What turning it off removes
`pawnshop_ped`	The pawnshop NPC and its blip. Selling still works at the fishing NPC
`anchor`	The `anchor` item’s effect
`boat_rentals`	The rent/return options in the fishing menu
`nets`	Placing, tending, and collecting fishing nets
`treasure`	Treasure map drops, maps, and sunken safes. Bait digging is unaffected
`logbook`	The `logbook` item
`tournaments.weekly`	The weekly tournament and its menu entry
`tournaments.daily`	The daily live tournaments and their menu entry

Disabling treasure stops new treasure maps from dropping, but players can still sell treasure loot they already hold.

NPC placement

cfg.npc. Change the model or coords and restart; blips, peds, and target zones rebuild from this block.

cfg.npc = {
    fishing = {
        model       = 'a_m_y_beach_01',
        coords      = vector4(1302.95, 4228.7, 33.91, 18.89),
        blip_sprite = 780,
        blip_color  = 3,
        blip_scale  = 0.60,
    },
    pawnshop = {
        model       = 'cs_nervousron',
        coords      = vector4(-1459.56, -413.97, 35.74, 161.5),
        blip_sprite = 500,
        blip_color  = 5,
        blip_scale  = 0.60,
    },
}

Payment sources

cfg.money. Each entry is 'cash' or 'bank'.

cfg.money = {
    buy_equipment     = 'bank',
    boat_rental       = 'bank',
    tournament_reward = 'bank',
    challenge_reward  = 'bank',
    sell_treasure     = 'cash',
    sell_fish         = 'cash',
}

Key tunables

Field	Default	What it does
`cfg.cast.wait_min_seconds` / `wait_max_seconds`	`25` / `40`	Bite-wait window before any level reduction
`cfg.cast.wait_floor_seconds`	`15`	Hard floor on bite wait after level reduction
`cfg.length_skew`	`2.5`	Catch-length distribution. Higher = trophies are rarer
`cfg.level_thresholds`	30 tiers	XP totals per level. Edit to reshape progression
`cfg.market.floor` / `ceiling`	`0.75` / `1.25`	Pawnshop multiplier bounds
`cfg.market.impact` / `recovery`	`0.10` / `0.05`	Per-sale push toward the floor; per-tick recovery
`cfg.tournament.duration_days`	`7`	Weekly tournament length
`cfg.tournament.prizes`	`{ 10000, 5000, 2500 }`	Weekly top-3 prize pool
`cfg.active_tournament.daily_hours`	`{ 12, 20 }`	Server-clock start times for daily tournaments
`cfg.active_tournament.zones`	8 zones	Zones eligible to host a daily tournament
`cfg.treasure.base_chance`	`0.5`	% treasure-drop chance per catch (before level/bait bonuses)
`cfg.treasure.bait_bonus_mult`	`15.0`	Treasure-chance multiplier when using `treasure_bait`
`cfg.nets.catch_interval`	`1800`	Seconds between net catch rolls
`cfg.nets.max_per_player`	`2`	Per-player net cap
`cfg.boat.rental_price` / `return_refund`	`500` / `0.25`	Boat rental price and the fraction refunded on return
`cfg.rod.low_durability`	`10`	Remaining durability at which the player is warned the rod is wearing out

Offline weekly-tournament winners are paid on their next login. Offline daily-tournament winners forfeit — daily events are live, in-zone only.

Editable Lua files

Each file is a plain Lua list — add, remove, reorder. Restart cc_fishing after editing.

File	What’s in it
`shared/fish.lua`	All catchable fish: tier, length range, XP, base price, zone preferences
`shared/tiers.lua`	Tier display labels, order, icons
`shared/zones.lua`	Fishing zones, per-zone boost/blacklist, treasure multiplier
`shared/equipment.lua`	Rods, baits, shop items — prices, level gates, boosts
`shared/challenges.lua`	Daily challenge pool — match predicates, rewards, level gates
`shared/treasures.lua`	Treasure loot tables and per-tier safe payouts

These files are not escrow-locked, but renaming a fish or item id means also renaming its inventory item (see installation). Keep the ids in sync.

Treasure minigame

Cracking a sunken safe runs a minigame defined in client/minigames.lua (escrow-ignored). It returns true on success, false on fail/cancel — swap the body for anything with that contract and nothing else changes. Out of the box there’s no minigame — the safe opens on interact:

treasure_safe = function()
    return true
end,

Safes are opened underwater, where the ox_lib skill check cancels itself instantly, so it’s not the default. Both alternatives ship commented in the file. To add a real gate, pick one. The cc_minigames safe-cracker works underwater (needs cc_minigames running):

treasure_safe = function()
    return exports.cc_minigames:Safe({
        difficulty = cfg.treasure.safe_difficulty or 'medium',
        variant    = 'bare',
    })
end,

The ox_lib skill check works only for land-based safes:

treasure_safe = function()
    return lib.skillCheck(cfg.treasure.safe_difficulty or 'medium')
end,

cfg.treasure.safe_difficulty ('easy' | 'medium' | 'hard') feeds either one. For a longer, multi-stage crack, pass an array — e.g. lib.skillCheck({ 'easy', 'easy', 'hard' }). Or use any other cc_minigames export — see the minigames reference.
