Map Structure

R_FFA uses two separate configurations:
  1. Maps - Define available maps with weapons and settings
  2. Arenas - Define physical arena locations and zones

​
Creating a Map

Add to R.Maps in config.lua: 
R.Maps = {
    {
        Name = "Pistol Arena",
        Image = "https://your-image-url.png",
        Description = "Only pistols allowed",
        Weapons = {
            "weapon_pistol",
            "weapon_pistol_mk2",
            "weapon_combatpistol",
        },
        MaxPlayers = 20,
        UseArmor = true,
        MapId = 1, -- Must match Arena
    },
}

​
Map Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
NamestringDisplay name of the map
ImagestringURL to map image

MapIdnumberLinks to Arena

​
Creating an Arena

Add to R.Arenas in config.lua: 
R.Arenas = {
    {
        Name = "Pistol Arena",
        Image = "https://your-image-url.png",
        Route = 3131456579, -- Interior route (if needed)
        Is1v1Map = false,

        -- 1v1 spawn points (required for 1v1 maps)
        P1Spawn = vector3(-268.64, -1584.75, 31.84),
        P2Spawn = vector3(-262.80, -1556.67, 31.84),

        -- FFA spawn points
        SpawnPoints = {
            vec3(-58.20, 6487.37, 31.50),
            vec3(-40.94, 6456.73, 35.25),
            vec3(-42.51, 6415.77, 31.49),
        },

        -- Arena zone
        ZoneType = "Sphere",
        RadiusOrThickness = 90.0,
        Coords = vec3(-111.86, 6421.03, 31.43),
    },
}

​
Arena Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription

P2Spawnvector3Player 2 spawn (1v1)
SpawnPointstableList of FFA spawn points

​
Getting Coordinates

1

Go to Location

Travel to your desired arena location
2

Get Coordinates

Use a coordinate script or command like /coords
3

Copy Values

Copy the vector3 or vector4 coordinates
4

Add to Config

Paste into your arena configuration

​
Example: Creating a 1v1 Map

-- Add to R.Maps
{
    Name = "1v1 Pistols",
    Image = "https://example.com/1v1.png",
    Description = "1v1 pistol duel",
    Weapons = {
        "weapon_pistol",
        "weapon_combatpistol",
    },
    MaxPlayers = 2,
    UseArmor = false,
    MapId = 10,
},

-- Add to R.Arenas
{
    Name = "1v1 Pistols",
    Image = "https://example.com/1v1.png",
    Route = 0,
    Is1v1Map = true,

    P1Spawn = vector3(100.0, 200.0, 30.0),
    P2Spawn = vector3(110.0, 200.0, 30.0),

    SpawnPoints = {
        vector3(100.0, 200.0, 30.0),
        vector3(110.0, 200.0, 30.0),
    },

    ZoneType = "Sphere",
    RadiusOrThickness = 25.0,
    Coords = vec3(105.0, 200.0, 30.0),
}

​
Weapon Configuration

Available weapons are defined in R.Weapons: 
R.Weapons = {
    "weapon_pistol",
    "weapon_pistol_mk2",
    "weapon_vintagepistol",
    "weapon_combatpistol",
    -- Add more weapons here
}

​
Weapon Labels

Customize weapon names: 
R.WeaponLabels = {
    weapon_pistol = "Pistol",
    weapon_pistol_mk2 = "Pistol MK2",
    -- Add more labels
}

​
Component Images

Customize weapon component icons: 
R.ComponentImages = {
    suppressors = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_suppressor_light.png',
    extended_clips = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_clip_extended_pistol.png',
    grips = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_grip.png',
    scopes = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_scope_small.png',
    flashlights = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_flashlight.png',
    magazines = 'nui://ox_inventory/web/images/at_clip_drum_rifle.png'
}

​
Zone Types

​
Sphere Zone

Simple circular zone: 
ZoneType = "Sphere",
RadiusOrThickness = 50.0, -- Radius in meters
Coords = vec3(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), -- Center point

​
Polygon Zone

Complex shaped zone (future feature): 
ZoneType = "Poly",
RadiusOrThickness = 5.0, -- Wall thickness
-- Define polygon points

​
Testing Your Map

1

Enable Debug

R.ZoneDebug = true
2

Restart Resource

restart r_ffa
3

Join Arena

Join your new map and test spawn points
4

Check Zones

Verify the zone boundaries are correct
5

Disable Debug

R.ZoneDebug = false

Coords = vec3(-111.86, 6421.03, 31.43)

Route = 829504820
Coords = vec3(885.92, -3195.80, -98.19)

Coords = vec3(-1000.0, -3000.0, 13.9)

​
Tips

  • Start with small arenas (20-30m radius)
  • Test spawn points don’t overlap
  • Use realistic weapon combinations
  • Balance armor with weapon power
  • Add multiple spawn points to prevent camping
