How to whitelist the fire siren to certain players

If you want to whitelist the fire siren so only select people can hear it, follow this guide.

> Warning: Advanced Tutorial

---

1. Open the top level folder (resources/[inferno-collection]/inferno-fire-ems-pager)

---

If using whitelist.json

The guide joins back together again from step 4

2. Open the whitelist.json file
3. Add this key and value to the people who you want to be able to hear the siren:

"hearsiren"	:	true

For example:

{
	"steamhex"	:	"steam:1100001076264E1",
	"pager"		:	true,
	"page"		:	true,
	"firesiren"	:	true,
	"cancelpage"	:	true,
	"hearsiren"	:	true
}

If using Ace Permissions

The guide joins back together again from step 4

2. Open the inferno-fire-ems-pager.cfg file
3. Add this line to the very bottom of the file:

add_ace fire-ems-pager.group.user "fire-ems-pager.hearsiren" allow

---

4. Open the client.lua file
5. Find this section, near the top:

-- Local whitelist variable
local Whitelist = {}
-- Boolean for whether the whitelist is enabled
Whitelist.Enabled = Config.WhitelistEnabled
-- Whitelist variable for commands
Whitelist.Command = {}
-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted for pager command
Whitelist.Command.pager = false
-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted for page command
Whitelist.Command.page = false
-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted for firesiren command
Whitelist.Command.firesiren = false
-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted for cancelpage command
Whitelist.Command.cancelpage = false
-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted for pagerwhitelist command
Whitelist.Command.pagerwhitelist = false

6. Add this code directly below that section:

-- Boolean for whether player is whitelisted to hear the fire siren
Whitelist.Command.hearsiren = false

7. Find this section, near the bottom:

-- Play fire sirens
RegisterNetEvent("fire-ems-pager:PlaySirens")
AddEventHandler("fire-ems-pager:PlaySirens", function(Stations)
	-- Stop sirens being paged over the top of others
	FireSiren.Enabled = true

	-- Loop though all stations
	for _, Station in ipairs(Stations) do
		Station.Loc = vector3(Station.x, Station.y, Station.z)
		-- Insert temporary array into enabled stations
		table.insert(FireSiren.EnabledStations, Station)
	end
	-- Short pause before sirens are played
	Citizen.Wait(1000)

	-- New NUI message
	SendNUIMessage({
		-- Tell the NUI to play the siren sound
		TransactionType = "PlaySiren"
	})
	-- Wait for sound to finish
	Citizen.Wait(51000)
	-- Then allow more sirens to be sounded
	FireSiren.Enabled = false
end)

8. Replace that entire section with the following:

-- Play fire sirens
RegisterNetEvent("fire-ems-pager:PlaySirens")
AddEventHandler("fire-ems-pager:PlaySirens", function(Stations)
	-- Check if the player is whitelisted to hear fire sirens
	if Whitelist.Command.hearsiren then
		-- Stop sirens being paged over the top of others
		FireSiren.Enabled = true

		-- Loop though all stations
		for _, Station in ipairs(Stations) do
			Station.Loc = vector3(Station.x, Station.y, Station.z)
			-- Insert temporary array into enabled stations
			table.insert(FireSiren.EnabledStations, Station)
		end
		-- Short pause before sirens are played
		Citizen.Wait(1000)
	
		-- New NUI message
		SendNUIMessage({
			-- Tell the NUI to play the siren sound
			TransactionType = "PlaySiren"
		})
		-- Wait for sound to finish
		Citizen.Wait(51000)
		-- Then allow more sirens to be sounded
		FireSiren.Enabled = false
	end
end)

9. Find this section, at the bottom:

-- Resource master loop
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	-- Forever
    	while true do
		-- Allows safe looping
		Citizen.Wait(0)
		-- If fire siren is enabled
		if FireSiren.Enabled then


		...


		end
	end
end)

10. Replace this line:

if FireSiren.Enabled then

with:

if FireSiren.Enabled and Whitelist.Command.hearsiren then

11. Enjoy!

Note: If a user is not on the whitelist, the default value for hearing the fire siren is false.
