Auctions Tab

The Auctions tab features a live marketplace for contract trading. Players who choose not to complete their own contracts can list them here for other users to bid on.

Auction Details:

  • Vehicle Specifications: View the target vehicle's class and model.

  • Listing Info: Identify the original contract owner and the auction's expiration time.

  • Current Bid: Displays the highest offer currently placed on the contract.

  • Place Bid: Submit your offer for the contract. This button is disabled for the auction owner to prevent artificial price inflation.

  • Highest Bidder Indicator: This icon lights up or changes color to signify that you are currently leading the auction.

The auction system includes automated safeguards to ensure fair trading and player notification:

  • Outbid Protection: Whenever a player is outbid, their funds are instantly returned, and they receive a notification to update their offer.

  • Settlement: Once an auction concludes, the seller receives the final bid amount, and the highest bidder is awarded the contract.

  • Expiration Extension: To protect buyers, the script includes a grace period configuration found in av_boosting/server/editable/_config.lua. This ensures that even if a contract was auctioned with only a few minutes remaining, the winner is granted a specific amount of time to start the mission before it expires.
