# Radio Jammers

## Video Example Coming soon! ## Using the Radio Jammer ### Enabling the Jammer 1. Enable the `Config.radioJammers.enabled` option in your [config.lua](https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/radio/getting-started/installing-the-in-game-resource#updates). 2. Add the `sonoranradio.jammers` [ace permission](https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/radio/tutorials/usage/in-game-radio/configuring-ace-permissions). ### Opening in Standalone You can use `/radio jammer` command to open a personal scanner. This requires the `sonoranradio.jammers` [ace permission](https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/radio/tutorials/usage/in-game-radio/configuring-ace-permissions). ### Opening in a Framework Server (QBCore, Qbox, etc.) With the radio jammer item in their inventory, users can double click to open the [scanner menu](#using-the-radio-scanner-1).

#### Item Drop {% hint style="warning" %} Dropping jammers is not currently supported in OX inventory. Support will be added at a later date, pending more information from the OX development team. {% endhint %} If the jammer item is dropped on the floor, you can interact by being near it and pressing `E`. If the jammer is powered on, it will impact radios in the configured radius.

## Permanent Jammers Permanent Jammers are available to everybody at configurable locations across the map. #### Configuring Permanent Jammers You can use `/radio jammers` to easily add, move, or delete persistent jammers

When creating a jammer, you have the ability to choose between many different jammer-like models to best fit your needs.

You can also modify the `jammers.json` config file for more customization. By default, there are no jammers spawned. ## Jamming Radio Effect In-game radio screens will reflect a jamming effect, with the intensity based on the jammer strength.

## Developers ### Ace Permissions If you have enabled `Config.radioJammers.permissionMode`, you must add permissions in your `server.cfg`for the scanner to work. The ACE permission for `/radio scanner` is `sonoranradio.jammers`. The ACE permissions for specific jammer types are `sonoranradio.jammer_handheld`. * `jammer_handheld` and other options are from the names in your [config.lua](https://docs.sonoransoftware.com/radio/getting-started/installing-the-in-game-resource#updates). Learn more about [ACE Permissions](#ace-permissions). ### Giving the Scanner Item (QBCore) Sonoran Radio does not provide a way to get the scanner item independently. You can give the item with any method, but here's an example chat command: ``` /giveitem sonoran_radio_jammer_handheld 1 ```
