'''Q. MY CHARACTER IS BUGGED, WHAT DO I DO?''' | |||
'''A.''' Depending on the bug, if you cannot enter a car, see if your weapon wheel is working. If this is not the case, press F8 and type resetweaponwheel. If you have a part of your UI stuck in your screen press F8 then type resetui. For anything else either relog or try to get an admins attention. (Keep in mind, do not just relog when you're downed as this could be seen as combat logging, make an admin aware why first). | |||
'''Q. HOW DO I FIX MY NVIDIA SHADOWPLAY ON FIVEM?''' | |||

When the server is busy, certain whitelisted roles are able to request queue one-time bumps using the ''#gta-queue-bump'' channel on Discord, or are given the option when they pick the role they wish to play as when connecting to the server. Please ensure you read the pinned message in that channel before doing so. | When the server is busy, certain whitelisted roles are able to request queue one-time bumps using the ''#gta-queue-bump'' channel on Discord, or are given the option when they pick the role they wish to play as when connecting to the server.

'''Q. CAN I BUY PRIORITY?''' | |||
'''A.''' No. Allowing priority queue to be bought would effectively restrict the server to those who can afford to pay at peak times, Varied and rich roleplay comes from having players from all backgrounds. | |||
'''Q. WHAT IS THE THROTTLE QUEUE? IS THIS DIFFERENT TO THE NORMAL QUEUE?''' | |||
'''A.''' This is different to the normal queue. The throttle queue comes into effect when there are 40 or more people trying to connect at once. This is always likely to be the case when a server restart has occurred during peak times. To prevent 301 players all trying to download data and connect to the server, it will trickle 40 players through at a time, which then puts them through to the loading screen (if enough server slots are free) or the regular queue. You will find the throttle queue moves quite quickly as players don't take too long to load. | |||

'''A.''' This means your connection to the server has timed out for some reason and means you are no longer in the queue. It is rare this happens, but if it does you will need to reconnect, unfortunately. | '''A.'''

'''A.''' This can often occur after you have downloaded new files as part of an update or when you have first connected to the server. If you see 'Connecting to Server' for more than 30 seconds, you probably will not progress further. This suggests you have lost connection to the FiveM server and you will need to close FiveM and reconnect. If you are quick enough, you can sometimes be fortunate to be given priority for connecting with 5 minutes but the outcome of this can vary. | '''A.'''
