Description

A chop-shop job where a player drives a (usually stolen) vehicle into a marked strip bay, then dismantles it through several timed stages — each stage a mechanic animation that yields a server-priced part — before the bare shell is deleted. It is the natural money-sink for any car-theft economy, so servers running a steal-cars loop buy it to give stolen vehicles a destination and drain duplicate cars out of the world.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Client-paid parts — Claude adds the part value with AddMoney on the client; players spoof the reward. The price table and grant must be server-side.
  • Anim T-poseTaskPlayAnim is called before the dict loads, so the ped never plays the strip animation. Force the HasAnimDictLoaded wait loop.
  • Double-strip desync — two players in one bay both strip the same netId and get double-paid; the server must lock the netId until the job ends.

Corrective re-prompt: Move every part price and money grant into server.lua behind a server-side table; before TaskPlayAnim add RequestAnimDict(dict) then while not HasAnimDictLoaded(dict) do Wait(0) end; and on the server lock the vehicle netId in a table when a strip starts, rejecting any second start on that netId until the job clears it.

Framework Integration

  • ESX: local ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject(); grant with xPlayer.addMoney(value) server-side after resolving ESX.GetPlayerFromId(source).
  • QBCore: local QBCore = exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject(); grant with Player.Functions.AddMoney('cash', value) after QBCore.Functions.GetPlayer(source).
  • QBox: identical export to QBCore (exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject()); QBox keeps the qb player API, so Player.Functions.AddMoney('cash', value) works unchanged.

Profit Potential

$400–$6000/mo on Tebex (expected ~$1500). [INFERRED] Priced inside the $50-389 script band against the signal-scraper tebex_snapshot corpus (median seller $11.85K/mo, n=100); a hot criminal-economy loop sits high in the band.

Trend Signal

🔥 hot — strategy: Niche-matrix criminal economy; strip-stolen-vehicle-for-parts is among the most-requested crime loops, sinking stolen cars — hot.

Sales Angle

Position as the money-sink half of any car-theft economy — stolen vehicles finally have somewhere to go and duplicate cars drain out of the world. Premium crime-loop content; recommend $329 on Tebex.
