Introduction

Want to change the default spawnpoints or add new ones? Managing spawnpoints in the QBCore Framework is done via the qb-spawn resource. Below, you'll learn how to customize them.

FiveM: Manage and Customize Spawnpoints with QbCore

Configuration

Spawnpoints are set in the config.lua configuration file of the qb-spawn resource. 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

QB.Spawns = {
    ["legion"] = { -- Index for the table
        coords = vector4(195.17, -933.77, 29.7, 144.5), -- Where the player spawns
        location = "legion", -- So the JavaScript knows which spawn you chose
        label = "Legion Square", -- What the player sees in the menu
    },

    ["policedp"] = {
        coords = vector4(428.23, -984.28, 29.76, 3.5),
        location = "policedp",
        label = "Police Department",
    },

    ["paleto"] = {
        coords = vector4(80.35, 6424.12, 31.67, 45.5),
        location = "paleto",
        label = "Paleto Bay",
    },

    ["motel"] = {
        coords = vector4(327.56, -205.08, 53.08, 163.5),
        location = "motel",
        label = "Motels",
    },

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

Code

["new_spawn_name"] = { -- Must be unique
    coords = vector4(1.1, -1.1, 1.1, 180.0), -- Coordinates where the player spawns
    location = "new_spawn_name", -- Must be unique
    label = "New spawn name", -- The label shown in the selection menu
},

Info

Determining coordinates You need a suitable resource to find the current coordinates. You can find several tools online; just pick the one that suits you best. :)

The final result looks like this:

Code

    QB.Spawns = {
    
        ["legion"] = { -- Index for the table
            coords = vector4(195.17, -933.77, 29.7, 144.5), -- Where the player spawns
            location = "legion", -- So the JavaScript knows which spawn you chose
            label = "Legion Square", -- What the player sees in the menu
        },
    
        ["policedp"] = {
            coords = vector4(428.23, -984.28, 29.76, 3.5),
            location = "policedp",
            label = "Police Department",
        },
    
        ["paleto"] = {
            coords = vector4(80.35, 6424.12, 31.67, 45.5),
            location = "paleto",
            label = "Paleto Bay",
        },
    
        ["motel"] = {
            coords = vector4(327.56, -205.08, 53.08, 163.5),
            location = "motel",
            label = "Motels",
        },
        
        ["new_spawn_name"] = { -- Must be unique
        coords = vector4(1.1, -1.1, 1.1, 180.0), -- Coordinates where the player spawns
        location = "new_spawn_name", -- Must be unique
        label = "New spawn name", -- The label shown in the selection menu
         },
    }

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Spawnpoints are set in the config.lua configuration file of the qb-spawn resource, which you edit via FTP.

Add a new entry with a unique name, coords (vector4 with x, y, z, and heading), location, and label in the QB.Spawns table inside config.lua.

You need a suitable resource to determine the current coordinates in-game.
