Adding Items & Recipes

1. Define the item

shared/config_items.lua → Config.Items is the single source of truth. Add an entry:

{ name = 'my_burger', localeKey = 'item_my_burger', image = 'my_burger.webp',
  category = 'general',            -- 'meat' | 'veg' | 'dry' | 'general'
  cost = 15, weight = 0.4, icon = 'ph ph-hamburger',
  consumeTime = 5000, hunger = 30, thirst = 0,
  propType = 'spatula' },         -- optional: hand prop while held / take-to-hand

Common fields:

2. Add the label

Add to shared/locales.lua:

item_my_burger = "My Burger",

3. Register with your inventory

Add the item to ox_inventory / qb-core and drop a my_burger.png image in the inventory's image folder. Regenerate the items/ lists (they're generated from config_items.lua) or add the entry by hand — see Inventory Items.

4. (Optional) Make it consumable

If it should be eaten/drunk, ensure it's useable in your inventory. The resource auto-registers consumables; you can also force it at runtime:

exports.aty_restaurant:RegisterDynamicConsumable('my_burger', 'general')

5. Add recipes

shared/config_recipes.lua:

• Grill/fryer cooking is driven by the item's cookedItem + models + cook times.
• Microwave — add to Config.MicrowaveRecipes (input → output, power/time, perfect window).
• Drinks — add to the drink dispenser recipes.
• Menu templates — extend the restaurant preset tables (e.g. Burger Shot) so owners can one-click apply your items.

6. Images & NUI

Put the .webp icon in web/public/. If you add or restructure NUI, rebuild:

cd web && npm run build
