General Information

---

• Buffs are new effects that a player can get. Example: Stamina Buff makes a player run faster.

  • They show up as a new icon

• Enhancements are making statuses you already have better. Example: Health Buff heals a player periodically

  • They show up as yellow on the status they are affecting. Example: Armor buffs makes the armor icon yellow

• By default adding buffs to a player will just have the buff icon show

  • You need to add logic to give the player buff effects (below you can see examples)

• Avaliable buffs you can pick from are in the config file (shared/config.lua)

Add a buff to a player

-- Function signature - buffName: string, time: int (1 second = 1000)
exports['ps-buffs']:AddBuff(buffName, time)

-- Example -- Adds a hacking buff for 15 seconds, which the player would see a hacking buff icon on their screen
exports['ps-buffs']:AddBuff("hacking", 15000)

Check if player has a buff

-- Function signature - buffName: string
exports['ps-buffs']:HasBuff(buffName)

-- Example -- Check if a player has the hacking buff and make it easier to hack something
if exports['ps-buffs']:HasBuff("hacking") then
    -- give player more time or less complicated puzzle
end

Buff Effects

---

• We currently have the following buff effects implemented that you can call:
  • Stamina Buff - Makes a player run faster and generate a random partial amount of stamina

      -- Function signature - time: int (1 second = 1000), value: double (float)
      exports['ps-buffs']:StaminaBuffEffect(time, value)
    
      -- Example -- Adds a stamina buff for 15 seconds and a player runs 1.4 faster.
      exports['ps-buffs']:StaminaBuffEffect(15000, 1.4)

  • Swimming Buff - Makes a player swim faster and generate a random partial amount of stamina

    -- Function signature - time: int (1 second = 1000), value: double (float)
    exports['ps-buffs']:SwimmingBuffEffect(time, value)
    
    -- Example -- Adds a swimming buff for 20 seconds and a player swims 1.4 faster.
    exports['ps-buffs']:SwimmingBuffEffect(20000, 1.4)

  • Health Buff - Makes a player's health partially regenerate periodically

    -- Function signature - time: int (1 second = 1000), value: int
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddHealthBuff(time, value)
    
    -- Example -- Adds a health buff for 10 seconds and a player periodically gains 10 health.
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddHealthBuff(10000, 10)

  • Armor Buff - Makes a player's armor partially regenerate periodically

    -- Function signature - time: int (1 second = 1000), value: int
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddArmorBuff(time, value)
    
    -- Example -- Adds a armor buff for 30 seconds and a player periodically gains 10 armor.
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddArmorBuff(30000, 10)

  • Stress Buff - Makes a player's stress partially decrease periodically

    -- Function signature - time: int (1 second = 1000), value: int
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddStressBuff(time, value)
    
    -- Example -- Removes stress for 30 seconds and removes 10 units every 5 seconds
    exports['ps-buffs']:AddStressBuff(30000, 10)
