# Mango Dispatch

Standalone dispatch for FiveM - call alerts, the quick call window, /911 and a full responder board that any resource can write to.

**Mango Dispatch** is a complete dispatch layer for your server: it raises calls, alerts every unit on duty, tracks who is responding, marks who has Primary, and clears calls Code 4 - without a database, without NUI focus, and without a single per-frame loop.

It is deliberately standalone. Any resource - a robbery script, a phone, a prison, a mechanic job - can raise a call with one export, and anything can read the whole board back out.

{% hint style="info" %}
**No database.** Calls live in memory for the lifetime of the server session. Every open call is closed automatically on restart. Nothing to install, nothing to migrate, nothing to clean up.
{% endhint %}

### The loop, in four keys

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### A call comes in

An alert card slides into the corner with the code, location, caller and your distance. Nothing takes focus - keep driving.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Press `Y` to respond

You are on the call. A blip and GPS route appear, and the call window shows every unit rolling with you.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Work it together

First unit on scene is **Primary**; `Tab` hands it over. More units accept from `F7` and stack up on the same call.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Press `Backspace` when it is done

Code 4. The call clears for everyone, routes disappear, and the board moves on.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### What your units see

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Alert cards</strong></td><td>A stack in the corner with the code, title, location, distance, caller and tags. Accept or decline with one key.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>The quick call window</strong></td><td><code>F7</code> opens the four newest open calls. Arrow keys move the highlight, one key responds.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Responder view</strong></td><td>The moment you respond, the window switches to the unit list for that call and shows who has Primary.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Route on the map</strong></td><td>A blip and a GPS route to the call you are on, cleared the moment you cancel or clear it.</td></tr></tbody></table>
