Features

• Custom 3D board and pieces: a streamed wooden board with tiger and goat models sits on every placed table, so the café looks set up even when nobody is playing.
• Animated moves: goats fly in from the goats-left row and drop onto their point. Pieces slide along the lines, and tigers jump in an arc while the captured goat sinks away into the captured row.
• DUI board face: lines, legal-move highlights, names, goats left, captures, whose turn it is and the result, all drawn on the board itself.
• Two cameras: a close seated view over the board and a wide view of both players. Switch with the mouse wheel or V.
• Play against AI: pick tigers or goats, and an NPC sits in the opponent's chair.
• Admin table placement (/baghchaltables): fly camera and gizmo, a choice of table and chair models, auto-arranged chairs. Saved to the database and spawned for everyone.
• Server-authoritative rules: every placement, slide and jump is validated on the server.
• Optional stakes and item reward, challenges from the target eye, spectators and a leaderboard.
• Themed lobby panel (walnut, brass and dhaka cloth) docked on the left.
• 0.00 ms idle.

Requirements

Resource	Needed?
oxmysql	Required
qb-core / qbx_core / es_extended	Optional, detected automatically (standalone works too)
ox_target / qb-target	Optional. Without one, players walk up and press E
object_gizmo + ox_lib	Needed to move/rotate props in the admin placement tool
ox_lib / qb-menu	Optional: nicer leaderboard and prompts

Installation

1. Put the lumo-baghchal folder in your resources folder.
2. In server.cfg, ensure it after oxmysql, your framework and your target:

   ensure oxmysql
   ensure ox_lib
   ensure qb-core        # or qbx_core / es_extended / nothing
   ensure ox_target      # or qb-target / nothing
   ensure object_gizmo
   ensure lumo-baghchal

3. Start the server. The database tables are created automatically (sql/install.sql is included if you prefer to import it by hand).
4. In game, as an admin, run /baghchaltables → + New table here → place it → Save. The board appears on the table and players can play.

Commands

Command	Who	What
/baghchaltables	Admin	Place, edit, move, delete tables
/baghchal	Everyone	Open the lobby while standing at a board
/baghchalboard	Everyone	Top 10 players by wins

Controls (at the board)

Input	Action
Mouse	Click a piece, then a highlighted point (goats: click a point to place)
Mouse wheel / V	Switch between the close and the whole-table camera
Backspace ×2	Leave the table

How to play

• 4 tigers start on the corners, and 20 goats wait off the board.
• Goats move first. They place one goat per turn until all 20 are down, then slide along the lines.
• Tigers slide along the lines or jump a goat in a straight line to capture it.
• Tigers win after capturing Config.CaptureToWin goats (default 5). Goats win by trapping every tiger.

Configuration

Everything is in config.lua and commented. The options owners change most:

Option	Default	What it does
Config.Framework	'auto'	Force 'qbx', 'qb', 'esx' or 'standalone'
Config.Target	'auto'	Force 'ox', 'qb' or 'none' (built-in E prompt)
Config.AllowSolo	true	Games against AI
Config.CaptureToWin / TotalGoats	5 / 20	Rules
Config.Bet	off	Cash stake, winner takes the pot (not vs AI)
Config.WinReward	off	Chance of an item for the winner
Config.Admin.tableModels / chairModels	4 / 5 models	Props offered in the admin panel
Config.Table3D	tuned	Camera, animation speed, hover colour

Seat height: change that chair model's sitZ in Config.Admin.chairModels. For NPCs only, use Config.BotSitZ.

Troubleshooting

• "Admins only" — add your group to Config.Admin.permissions, or add_ace group.admin command allow.
• No board on the table — the stream/ folder must be intact. Clear the FiveM cache after updating.
• No "Play Bagh-Chal" option — start your target resource before lumo-baghchal, or set Config.Target = 'none'.
• Clicks land on the wrong point — set Config.Table3D.debugPoints = true, check the numbering, then flip faceFlipU / faceFlipV.
