Garbage Collector, Route Bins & Pay

Description

An ESX garbage collector job: /startroute marks the first bin, and each pickup advances to the next with a short animation; after the last bin a depot blip appears and returning there pays out per bin collected. A simple sequential-route earnings loop for sanitation RP.

Prompt Template

You are writing a FiveM resource for esextended (stable, exports getSharedObject).

Expected Output

The reference Lua lives at content/expected-outputs/jobs/09-garbage-route-bins-pay.lua. It implements a one-at-a-time bin route with pickup anims and a clamped depot payout. The fxmanifest splits it…

Known Failure Modes

• All bins marked at once, players cherry-pick the nearest and skip the route. Advance and mark one target bin at a time.
• Unclamped payout, trusting the client bin count invites spoofing. Clamp with math.min(count, max) server-side.
• Orphan blip, forgetting RemoveBlip after the depot payout leaves a stale route. Remove it when the route completes.
• No job gate, gate garbage:payRoute on job.name == "garbage".

Integration Notes

• Split the banners into client.lua and server.lua; list both in fxmanifest.lua.
• Requires es_extended and a garbage job seeded in your jobs table.
• Test on a dev server: set yourself to garbage, /startroute, hit each marked bin, return to the depot, and confirm the payout scales with bins collected.

Profit Potential

$350-$5000/mo on Tebex (expected ~$1300), priced inside the $50-389 script band against a corpus of comparable Tebex sellers (median ~$11.85K/mo), scaled for a hot job-systems niche at intermediate difficulty, a staple starter job on most economy servers.

Trend Signal

🔥 hot, custom FiveM job systems = niche-selection LAUNCH #1 (4.75).

Sales Angle

Position as the reliable entry-level job every economy server stocks: a sequential bin route, clean blip advance, and a spoof-clamped depot payout. List at $89 as a low-friction starter.
