# Character Slots

* You can change the default slots a player can own in **config/\_config.lua**

```lua
-- Character slots config
Config.Slots = {
    default = 5, -- The default character slots a player can own by default
    max = 5, -- Max slots a player can own, no matter if he bought them or is using VIP or whatever, X is the limit
}
```

## Add Slots

> To give extra slots to a specific player you have the following options:

* **1)** Run your own code in **server/editable/\_main.lua > line 71**

```lua
-- Retrieve the player slots
lib.callback.register('av_multicharacter:getSlots', function(source)
    dbug("getSlots()")
    local default = Config.Slots and Config.Slots['default'] or 3
    local extra = GetSlots(source) or 0
    dbug("slots:", default + extra)
    -- You can run your own check here, this is just an EXAMPLE using av_vip
    -- If player is VIP we will add an extra slot
    local isVIP = exports['av_vip']:getVIP(source)
    if isVIP then
        extra += 1 -- Add 1 extra slot if player is VIP
    end
    -- Returns the sum from default slots a player can own + any extra slot we add
    return (default + extra)
end)
```

* **2)** Use export **AddSlot(playerId, amount, temp)** from your own script, this script can be an admin menu or a shop script, is on you to add it where you want and make it work. \
  \&#xNAN;*AV VIP already includes a shop where you can buy an extra character slot.*
