EMS-applied crutches with limping, knockout and injuries that persist through relog
The crutch system injury persistence in Core Crutches gives your medical roleplay real consequences by letting EMS or admins apply crutches to injured players. Once crutched, a player walks with a limp, holds a crutch prop, and can no longer sprint or jump until they have healed.
Crucially, the injury sticks. The state persists through a skin reload, a relog, and a full reconnect, so players cannot dodge a broken leg by simply reloading their character. That persistence is what turns a temporary animation into meaningful, lasting roleplay.
A crutch system injury persistence that rewards proper recovery
Recovery is handled with clear, player-facing tools. EMS apply crutches for a set duration, patients can check their remaining time, and a usable crutch item lets them remove the state once they have recovered, keeping the loop entirely in-character.
- EMS or admin command to apply crutches for a set time
- Limp, crutch prop, and disabled run and jump
- Persistence across skin reload, relog, and reconnect
- Player command to check remaining crutch time
- Usable crutch item to end the state when healed
Built for immersive knockout and injury flow
An optional knockout layer pairs naturally with the crutch mechanics, giving medics a reason to treat, transport, and follow up on patients. Everything is configurable so you can tune durations, permissions, and effects to match your server's medical standards.
- Optional knockout state for downed players
- Configurable durations and permission gating
- Framework-friendly integration with EMS jobs
- Clean notifications and prompts for both sides
- Translatable strings for every message
For servers that take injuries seriously, this bridges the gap between being downed and being fully healed. It gives medics genuine work and gives patients a recovery arc worth roleplaying.
The result is a medical scene with weight, where a bad crash or a lost gunfight has visible, lasting stakes rather than an instant reset.

Because it is built to drop straight into a live server, this release installs cleanly and works alongside the systems you already run, so it earns its place without the usual porting headaches — the kind of dependable, ready-to-use addition that quietly raises the overall quality of a FiveM server.
