Live Unit Tracking Map

The ImperialCAD LiveMap is bundled with the ImperialCAD FiveM Resource and provides a real-time map view of units, postals, and activity within your community.

🚀 Getting Started

Step 1: Enable LiveMap

In your resource’s configuration file, set:

Config.livemap = true

By default, this is set to false.


Step 2: Postal Mapping

To display postal codes on the map:

  • Go to ImperialCAD Admin panel; Settings → Integrations → Postal Mapping

  • Upload a postals.json file

The system will automatically apply the mapping for your LiveMap.


🔄 Data Updates

  • Player Updates:

    • Sent from in-game to the LiveMap every 3.5 seconds

    • If the player has not moved since the last update, the refresh interval increases to 10 seconds

  • Unit Information & Postals:

    • Sent and received based on map activity (user placement and interaction)

    • Cached on the server side and updated periodically

  • Data Sync with CAD:

    • User data may take up to 1 minute to fully update and match CAD records

    • This delay is expected as the LiveMap is an external resource.


⚠️ Notes & Limitations

  • LiveMap is new and evolving, so expect minor delays in data synchronization

  • CAD-linked data is cached and may not appear instantly

  • Future updates will improve refresh speed and stability
