FiveM: Manage and Customize Spawnpoints with ESX

Configuration

Spawnpoints are set in the main.lua configuration file of es_extended (../es_extended/shared/config/). You can edit this file via FTP. If you’re not familiar with FTP yet, we recommend checking out our FTP Access guide.

The default spawnpoint configuration looks like this:

Code

Config.DefaultSpawns = { -- If you want more spawn locations and want them to be chosen randomly, remove the comment marks or add more spots
    { x = 222.2027, y = -864.0162, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0 },
    --{x = 224.9865, y = -865.0871, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 227.8436, y = -866.0400, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 230.6051, y = -867.1450, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 233.5459, y = -868.2626, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0}
}

If you want to add more spawnpoints, simply add another entry in the configuration file:

Code

Config.DefaultSpawns = { -- If you want more spawn locations and want them to be chosen randomly, remove the comment marks or add more spots
    { x = 222.2027, y = -864.0162, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0 },
    --{x = 224.9865, y = -865.0871, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 227.8436, y = -866.0400, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 230.6051, y = -867.1450, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0},
    --{x = 233.5459, y = -868.2626, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0}
    --{x = 766.5239, y = -112.0400, z = 30.2922, heading = 1.0} // NEW SPAWN
}
