Branding & Gang Vehicles
Gangs make the tablet and their cars their own: colour, logo, banner, plate prefix and gang-coloured vehicles.
🖌️ Tablet branding
The leader (or any rank with the Branding permission) opens Branding at the hideout desk and can change:
| Setting | Where it shows |
|---|---|
| Gang colour | The whole tablet's accent colour, the map, the ranking and invites |
| Logo | Tablet header, home page, ranking, map and invites |
| Banner | A wide image behind the header on the tablet Home page |
| Plate prefix | New gang vehicles (see below) |
A live preview shows the gang card and a sample plate. Changes apply straight away for every online member.
- There's a 10-minute cooldown between changes.
- Every change is recorded in the activity log.
- Staff can lock a gang's branding so it can't be changed from the tablet.
🚗 Gang plates
Each gang can have its own 2–4 character plate prefix, for example BLS. New vehicles then get plates like BLS4K2QZ.
- Gangs without their own prefix use the server default (
GNG). - Two gangs can't use the same prefix.
- Vehicles the gang already owns keep their old plate.
🖍️ Gang colour on vehicles
| Mode | Meaning |
|---|---|
off | Vehicles keep their own paint |
new (default) | New vehicles are painted in the gang colour when bought |
always | Vehicles are repainted in the gang colour every time they leave the garage, so the fleet follows colour changes |
Staff can set a different mode for each gang.
always only works with the built-in garage. With an external garage script (Mode = 'external'), vehicles only get the colour they were bought with.
