💡 Overview

The [Codex] Trust Level System is a versatile, fully customizable framework for RedM that turns reputation into a core gameplay mechanic.

Use it to control access to missions, black markets, NPCs, zones, and more – while the built-in Trust Shop lets you attach powerful, trust-based stores to any NPC in your world.

🔑 Customizable Trust Levels

Shape trust to match your server’s identity:

• Define any number of trust levels (e.g. Stranger, Known, Trusted, Inner Circle).

• Configure your own criteria for each level (jobs, missions, kills, playtime, actions, etc.).

• Attach privileges per level:

  • Access to locations or interiors

  • Special missions, jobs, or outlaw content

  • Discounts, unique items, or high-risk black-market options

Everything is fully driven by codex_core, so other scripts can read & modify trust cleanly.

🛍 Advanced Trust Shop System (Multi-Shop, Multi-NPC)

Turn trust into real purchasing power:

• Each NPC can open its own unique Trust Shop (Weapons, Drugs, Moonshine, etc.).

• Shop menus are fully independent per NPC – no shared or overlapping menu issues.

• Menu titles are generated from the shop key name (e.g. BlackMarketDrugs) for clear, contextual UIs.

• Every shop uses its own menu ID (e.g. codex_main_shops_menu_BlackMarketDrugs), keeping things clean with both ox_lib and menuapi.

• NPC prompts are shop-specific and smooth, guiding players naturally into the right store.

Purchases are tracked per player source, with item costs and limits safely handled to prevent type issues or exploit attempts.

⚙️ Seamless Integration for Your Scripts

The Trust Level System is built to plug into anything:

• Gate access to:

  • Heists, missions, robberies, or black-market contacts

  • Special jobs, factions, and high-tier rewards

  • Secret interiors, outlaw hubs, or endgame content

• Simple API for:

  • Checking a player’s trust level

  • Adding or removing trust

  • Linking trust requirements directly into your existing resources

Designed to enhance gameplay without adding unnecessary overhead.

🧠 Robust, Safe & Data-Aware Design

Behind the scenes, the system is hardened for long-term use:

• Trust values are always treated as proper numeric values before calculations.

• Trust data is validated and normalized into safe JSON structures.

• On resource start, any malformed or legacy rows in the trustlevel table are automatically brought back into a valid state.

• Add/remove trust handlers:

  • Sanitize input categories

  • Fall back to presets if a DB row is missing or malformed

• Both SecurityAPI and non-SecurityAPI paths share the same protection layer.

This means fewer surprises, fewer errors, and a system that stays healthy as your server grows.

🤝 Dynamic Player Interaction

Let trust drive how your world responds:

• Influence:

  • Relationships with NPCs or factions

  • Access to restricted zones or hidden vendors

  • Eligibility for events, missions, or special tasks

• Encourage:

  • Long-term progression

  • Group play & loyalty

  • Story-driven reputation systems

Trust becomes an actual metric players care about – not just lore.

📊 Visual Feedback & UX

Make progression clear and satisfying:

• Display a player’s current trust level and progress toward the next rank.

• Use codex-notifications and your UI stack to surface:

  • Level-up messages

  • Access denied / allowed prompts

  • Shop requirements and unlocks

Players always know where they stand and what to work toward.
