VNS Base Building
A Rust-style base building system for FiveM. Players claim a territory with a Base Control, then build, expand and defend their own base: walls, doors, storage, power, gardens, cooking and crafting stations, turrets and more.
Framework, inventory and target compatibility comes from vns-core, a separate free download:
- Frameworks: QBCore, QBox, ESX
- Inventories: ox_inventory, qb-inventory, qs-inventory, origen_inventory, codem-inventory, tgiann-inventory, core_inventory
- Targeting: ox_target, qb-target, qtarget
- Requires vns-core, ox_lib and oxmysql
Note
Storage containers need a real inventory resource. ESX's built-in inventory has no stashes, so storage boxes won't open with it.
Feature overview
- Snap building - Rust-style placement: foundations, walls, ceilings, stairs, ramps, windows and more, in 3 upgradeable material tiers.
- Structure stability - destroying a supporting structure brings down everything that depended on it, so nothing is left floating.
- Base territory - each base has its own area around the Base Control, minimum spacing between bases, membership and per-permission access control.
- Storage & doors - lockable doors, keypad/password protection, placeable storage containers.
- Electricity - generators with fuel, batteries, solar panels and wiring (Pro). Lite keeps a simplified generator + lights system.
- Gardening (Pro) - garden boxes, crops, water supply, rain collectors, weeds and fertilizer.
- Cooking & Crafting (Pro) - furnace and workbench stations with recipe books, multi-slot cooking and blueprint-gated recipes.
- Raiding - C4 breaching with optional raid hours and loot bags from destroyed storage.
- Turrets - automated defense turrets with selectable targeting modes.
- Decay & upkeep - bases consume materials over time or slowly decay.
- Seating & sleeping - usable chairs, sofas and beds.

The Pro features live in the addons/ folder of vns-basebuilding-pro (addons/electricity, addons/garden, addons/stations). Lite ships without these folders, and if a folder isn't there, its features simply don't exist.
Each version comes with one props resource: vns-basebuildingprops-lite for Lite, and vns-basebuildingprops-pro for Pro, which includes every model. See Installation.
