v1.2.0

MinorLatest

Added

  • Works with Oxide HUD (free): players move the notification bubbles in /hud or switch them off there, and the tablet's own controls (the status bar's bell and count, the home screen's edit buttons and panels) take the server's accent colour (Config.UseHudAccent in shared/config.lua, default true). Apps keep their own colours. Needs o-link 1.12.1 or newer. Without Oxide HUD nothing changes.

Fixed

  • The resource no longer fails to start when a customized config has a function inside a saved setting. The function is ignored and the server console names it.

Documentation

  • docs/CONFIGURATION.md and docs/FEATURES.md: Oxide HUD and Config.UseHudAccent.

v1.1.0

Minor

Added

  • Apps can open other apps on the tablet. The player still needs the other app installed and allowed for them.
  • The tablet also accepts the newer app message format used by oxide-phone, so an app built for both runs on either. Existing apps work as before.
  • itemimages/ox_inventory_items.lua holds a paste-ready tablet entry for ox_inventory.

Changed

  • Every button and tooltip in /tablet settings can now be translated in locales/en.json.
  • Attempts to open or change /tablet settings without admin rights are now written to the log.

Fixed

  • A /tablet settings change the database fails to save is now reported as failed and keeps its old value, instead of applying until the next restart.
  • When a /tablet settings change or reset is refused, the menu now says why instead of always saying settings are still loading, and a failed reset shows a message.
  • Pressing ESC to cancel an in-world placement no longer closes /tablet settings as well.
  • /tablet settings now closes when your character logs out.
  • Reports of game models that fail to load are now capped per player and in total, so one player cannot flood admins with warnings.

Documentation

  • docs/INSTALLATION.md: the ox_inventory steps now use itemimages/ox_inventory_items.lua.

v1.0.0

Major
  • Initial public release of oxide-tablet.
  • A tablet players carry in their inventory, opened with the item, a keybind or /tablet open; the item requirement can be turned off.
  • Other resources put their screens on the tablet as apps, and those apps appear on their own once both resources are running.
  • Ships with its own App Store, Settings and Maps apps.
  • Every tablet is its own device: a 15-digit IMEI saved on the item, keeping its name, home screen, apps and settings when it changes hands.
  • Battery that drains while the tablet is out and recharges while it is put away, at rates you set; a flat tablet will not open until it has charged.
  • Held tablet prop and animation other players can see, and the tablet puts itself away on death, on going down, or when the item leaves the player's inventory.
  • More than one item can open the tablet, and an item can be locked to a fixed list of apps for a work-issued device.
  • Home screen with up to 5 pages and a dock of up to 6 apps, drag-and-drop editing, an App Library for hidden apps, and per-tablet renaming.
  • Calendar and ID widgets in small and medium sizes, plus widgets other resources add in small, medium and large.
  • Eight built-in wallpapers, plus your own images placed in the wallpapers/ folder.
  • App Store where players install the apps they qualify for, with a preinstall list, or turned off so every available app installs itself.
  • Apps can be limited to certain jobs, gangs or on-duty players by the resource that adds them.
  • Maps app with places you add, the blips players already have on their map, name and icon overrides, search, GPS waypoints and a drawn route.
  • Settings app for players: Do Not Disturb, banners, sound, volume, per-app mutes, larger text, bold text, reduced motion, renaming and resets.
  • Notifications with banners, a tray under the status bar, app badge counts and a notification sound you can replace.
  • Notification bubbles at the corner of the screen while the tablet is put away.
  • Live settings editor (/tablet settings) that changes settings in game and saves them to the database, most applying with no restart.
  • Admin commands to factory-reset a tablet by IMEI (/tablet wipe) and send test notifications (/tablet notify), plus /tablet device and /tablet resethome for players.
  • Layouts, installed apps and player settings are saved with the tablet, or with the character when no tablet item is involved, and survive a restart.
  • Database tables are created automatically at first start; sql/install.sql ships for manual installs.
  • Runs on QBCore, QBX and ESX through o-link 1.8.0 or newer, with the tablet bridge namespace plus 16 client and 10 server exports for other scripts.
  • Developer guide for building apps and widgets, including a host shim that puts an existing NUI page on the tablet.
  • English locale (locales/en.json) covering every notification, command and screen.
