# Crew

## Crew

A run belongs to a crew. Solo play works too: with `cfg.heist.crew.min = 1`, a player who never forms a crew is treated as a crew of one.

***

### Commands

```
/crew
```

Opens the crew menu. It is also available as a target option on the fixer NPC.

| Menu entry      | Who can use it | What it does                                |
| --------------- | -------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| Invite a player | Leader         | Invites by server ID, target must be nearby |
| Leave the crew  | Anyone         | Blocked once the run has started            |

***

### Rules

* The first player to invite someone becomes the leader.
* Invites only reach players within `cfg.heist.crew.inviteRadius` metres and expire after `cfg.heist.crew.inviteSeconds`.
* A crew caps at `cfg.heist.crew.max` members.
* A player can only be in one crew.
* Once the crew's run is live, nobody joins and nobody leaves.

***

### Leader hand-off

If the leader disconnects mid-run, leadership passes to the next member and they are notified. If that happens during the crane lift, the leg restarts for the new leader so the arm stays drivable.

If every member disconnects, the run ends as `abandoned` and the entities it spawned are cleaned up.

***

### Payment

Everyone still connected at the drop-off is paid. Money is rolled per member inside `cfg.heist.rewards.money`, not split from a pot, and reward items roll separately for each of them.

{% hint style="warning" %}
A member with no inventory space gets *"You had no room for your cut"* and receives nothing. The run only closes if at least one member was actually paid.
{% endhint %}
