Step 1 — Add the Resource

Drop pdd_advanced-worldsearch into your resources directory:

resources/
└── [pdd]/
    ├── pdd_bridge/
    └── pdd_advanced-worldsearch/

Open config.lua and at minimum add your license hash:

Config.Licenses = {
    ["license:YOUR_LICENSE_HASH_HERE"] = true,
}

Everything else (props, loot tables, distances, cooldowns) is configured in-game via the admin panel.

Load order matters. pdd_bridge must start first:

ensure pdd_bridge
ensure pdd_advanced-worldsearch

If you use ox_target, qb-target, or ox_lib, ensure those start before pdd_advanced-worldsearch as well.

On first start the resource generates data/searchdata.json from the built-in default catalog. No SQL import needed — there are no database tables.

If the resource starts without console errors, join the server and run /searchadmin to open the admin tablet and verify everything is working.

Use /searchadmin (admin-only) to open the admin panel and manage all props and settings live. Changes save automatically to data/searchdata.json.
