Description

A bottom-screen 1-5 quick-slot hotbar bound to inventory items: pressing a number uses the slotted item, but the use is validated server-side before any effect applies. It rides the ox_inventory hotbar pattern and is a near-mandatory companion for item-use-heavy servers, where players expect instant access without opening the full inventory.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Client-trusted use — applying effects on the client lets players spam items they do not own.
  • Number-key clash — hard-coding keys without RegisterKeyMapping collides with native binds.
  • Stale HUD counts — not resyncing slots after a use shows phantom items.

Corrective re-prompt: "Move all item validation server-side: on hotbar:useSlot re-check getItemCount(src,item) > 0 before any effect, then TriggerClientEvent('hotbar:setSlots') with refreshed counts. Bind keys with RegisterKeyMapping so they are rebindable, and never apply the effect in the client handler."

Framework Integration

  • ESX: replace getItemCount with xPlayer.getInventoryItem(item).count and apply effects via xPlayer.removeInventoryItem.
  • QBCore: use Player.Functions.GetItemByName(item) for the count and Player.Functions.RemoveItem on use.
  • QBox: call exports.ox_inventory:GetItemCount(src, item) and exports.ox_inventory:RemoveItem — the native hotbar pattern.

Profit Potential

$250–$3500/mo on Tebex (expected ~$900). [INFERRED] priced inside the $50-389 script band against a corpus whose median seller clears $11.85K/mo (signal-scraper tebex_snapshot, n=100); a rising, item-economy-dependent niche.

Trend Signal

↗ rising — corpus: ox_inventory's hotbar pattern is widely adopted in the ox ecosystem; quick-slot UIs rising with item-use-heavy servers.

Sales Angle

The ox-ecosystem quick-slot bar that makes item-heavy servers feel instant. Lead with the anti-cheat angle: server-validated use. Recommended Tebex price $149.
