Configuration
Where the Taxi Job's settings live in Script Studio and the ones owners change most.
The Taxi Job has no config file. Every setting is edited in game in Script Studio and saved to your database, so updates never overwrite it.
Open Script Studio
- Add yourself as an admin in
gg_lib/server_config.lua. Nobody can open the menu until you do. - Type
/ggsettingsin game and pick Taxi Job. - Change what you need and press Save. Changes stay staged until you save, and anything that needs a restart is labelled.
Factory Reset at the bottom of the page restores the shipped defaults. Import & Export above it saves the settings as one JSON file and loads them back, for a backup or another server.

Reward items
Tips, the daily reward and achievements can hand out items, so these must exist in your inventory: water, sandwich, phone, lighter, gold_bar, plastic, glass, copper, rubber, steel, aluminum and ammo-9. Or change them to your own items on the Rewards page, in Item Pool, Daily Reward Items and Achievements.
Move the depot
Open General, then Depots, and open Downtown Cab Co. (or add a depot). Place Ped Position, Key Desk, Rental Bays and Return Area in game, then save.
To use your own building instead of the included interior, delete gg_taxijob_props/stream/cabco_mlo and every line in gg_taxijob_props/fxmanifest.lua that names cabco_mlo: three files entries and three data_file 'DLC_ITYP_REQUEST' lines. Keep gg_taxijob_props running: it also streams the roof signs, banners and rental key. The reception TV and the seated waiting-room peds only work in the included interior.
