QC-AdvancedMedic

Advanced medical roleplay system for RedM with realistic wound mechanics, treatment systems, and infection progression.

• Training Missions: 5 pre-configured medic training scenarios with difficulty scaling and realistic NPC patients
• Multi-Job Support: Flexible job system supporting multiple medic organizations (valmedic, sdmedic, etc.)
• Database Persistence: Optimized 5-table schema with stored procedures for complete medical history
• Multi-Language: Full localization support (English, Spanish, French)

Dependencies

• rsg-core - RedM framework
• rsg-bossmenu - Boss menu integration
• ox_lib - UI library
• oxmysql - Database wrapper
• rsg-inventory - Inventory system

Installation

1. Extract QC-AdvancedMedic to your resources folder
2. Execute INSTALL_FIRST/schema.sql in your database (creates 5 tables + stored procedures)
3. Add items from INSTALL_FIRST/shared_items.lua to rsg-core/shared/items.lua
4. Copy images from INSTALL_FIRST/IMAGES/ to rsg-inventory/html/images/
5. Configure config.lua and ConfigMissions.lua to match your server setup
6. Add ensure QC-AdvancedMedic to server.cfg

Important:

• Backup your database before installation
• Item names must match exactly (case-sensitive)
• Review Config.MedicJobLocations to set up your medic jobs
• Default max health is set to 600 - adjust Config.MaxHealth if your server uses different values

Quick Start

For Server Owners

1. Configure medic job locations in config.lua (lines 58-82)
2. Set death timer, respawn behavior, and inventory wipe options
3. Adjust treatment effectiveness and wound progression timers
4. Configure infection rates and cure item effectiveness
5. Set up training mission locations in ConfigMissions.lua
6. Set language in Config.Locale (en/fr/es)
7. Test with /revive and /clearwounds admin commands

⚠️ IMPORTANT - /heal Command Removed in v0.3.1 The /heal command has been removed. Use /revive (full heal + clear wounds) or /clearwounds (clear wounds only) instead. If you have scripts using /heal, update them to use /revive.

For Medics

1. Get hired at a medic job location (Valentine, Saint Denis, etc.)
2. Craft medical bag using materials at job storage
3. Use /inspect [playerID] to examine patients
4. Apply treatments via NUI interface (click body parts)
5. Complete training missions for experience
6. Monitor bandage expiration to prevent infections

For Players

• Use /checkhealth to examine your wounds and apply bandages/tourniquets from inventory
• Wounds accumulate damage, pain, and bleeding from combat/falls/animals
• Pain/bleeding progress over time if untreated
• Seek medic treatment or use basic supplies (bandages, whiskey)
• Infected wounds require special cure items (penicillin, antiseptic)
• Properly healed wounds become permanent scars
• Death occurs at 0 HP or 10+ bleeding - medic or respawn required

Configuration

Key settings in config.lua:

Config.MaxHealth = 600                          -- Maximum player health
Config.DeathTimer = 300                         -- Seconds before forced respawn
Config.UseScreenEffects = true                  -- Blood/pain visual effects
Config.WipeInventoryOnRespawn = false           -- Clear inventory on death
Config.WipeCashOnRespawn = false                -- Clear cash on death

-- Wound Progression (in minutes)
Config.WoundProgression = {
    bleedingProgressionInterval = 1,            -- Bleeding worsens every 1 min
    painProgressionInterval = 1,                -- Pain increases every 1 min
    painNaturalHealingInterval = 5,             -- Slow heal without treatment
    bandageHealingInterval = 1,                 -- Accelerated heal with bandage
    bleedingProgressAmount = 0.5,               -- Fixed increase per tick
    painProgressAmount = 0.5                    -- Fixed increase per tick
}

-- Infection System (see infection_system.lua for full config)
Config.InfectionTickInterval = 2                -- Check every 2 minutes
Config.BandageGracePeriod = 60                  -- Seconds before infection risk
Config.InfectionRollChance = 15                 -- Base 15% infection chance
Config.MaxSavedInjuries = 5                     -- Store last 5 healed injuries

-- Fall Damage
Config.FallDamage = {
    minHeight = 3.0,                            -- Minor injury threshold (meters)
    fractureHeight = 8.0,                       -- Fracture threshold (non-ragdoll)
    breakHeight = 15.0,                         -- Major break threshold (non-ragdoll)
    ragdollFractureHeight = 6.0,                -- Fracture threshold (ragdoll)
    ragdollBreakHeight = 10.0,                  -- Break threshold (ragdoll)
    ragdollChance = 20                          -- % chance to ragdoll with leg injuries
}

Adding New Medic Jobs

Simply add to Config.MedicJobLocations - no code changes needed:

{
    name = 'Blackwater Medical Office',
    prompt = 'bwmedic',
    coords = vector3(-813.48, -1324.34, 43.63),
    showblip = true,
    blipsprite = 'blip_shop_doctor',
    blipscale = 0.2,
    job = 'bwmedic'  -- Automatically supported by IsMedicJob()
}

System Architecture

Wound Detection

• Monitors player damage events from weapons, falls, animals
• Maps weapon hashes to configured damage profiles
• Calculates body part based on bone hit detection
• Applies pain/bleeding levels with randomized variation

Treatment Application

• Bandages: Time-based healing with expiration and symptom return
• Tourniquets: Emergency bleeding control with max duration limits
• Medicines: Pain relief and status effect removal
• Injections: Instant effects with gradual decay

Infection Mechanics

• Bandages decay after grace period (default 60 seconds)
• Dirty bandages trigger infection rolls every 2 minutes
• 4 infection stages: 25% → 50% → 75% → 90%
• Wound type multipliers (bullet stuck 2.0x, fragmented 2.5x)
• Gradual cure system requires multiple applications
• Temporary immunity granted after successful cure

Healing to Scars

• Requires: bleeding level 1, bandaged, sufficient time elapsed
• Healing times vary by wound type (10-40 minutes)
• Interrupts on new damage to same body part
• Converts wound to permanent scar with medical history
• Max 5 scars stored per player (oldest auto-removed)

Database Schema

Optimized 5-table design with stored procedures:

• player_wounds - Active wounds and scars with health tracking (unique per body part)
• medical_treatments - All treatment types consolidated (bandages, tourniquets, medicines, injections)
• player_infections - Infection tracking with cure progress and immunity
• player_fractures - Fracture system with healing progress and severity tracking
• medical_history - Complete audit trail with 30-day auto-cleanup

Stored Procedures:

• GetCompleteMedicalProfile(citizenid) - Single-call medical data retrieval
• CleanupExpiredMedicalData() - Automatic expired data removal

Contributor Recognition

All contributors will be recognized in CONTRIBUTORS.md! We appreciate every contribution, whether it's code, bug reports, documentation, or community support. Check out our contributor recognition levels and see how you can help improve QC-AdvancedMedic.

Known Issues

Minor:

• Shotgun pellet hit detection may occasionally miss at extreme angles
• NUI body part selection can be finicky on ultrawide monitors
• Fall damage detection sometimes triggers on steep slopes instead of actual falls

Performance Notes

• Average client tick: ~0.01ms (wound progression checks)
• Server events: ~5-15ms per medical profile request
• Database queries: Optimized with stored procedures (<10ms)
• NUI impact: Minimal when closed, ~1-2% CPU when active
• Recommended max players: Tested stable up to 128 concurrent
