MDT np_mdt v0.3.0

MDT – Mobile Dispatch Terminal is a Discord bot plus a web board for roleplay agencies: emergency services, police, fire departments, or anything else you name yourself. It's hosted at mdt.npdev.eu, so you don't need a server of your own: invite the bot, run the setup wizard, done.

The MDT has three parts:

Part	What it does
Discord bot	Time clock panel (clock in / out, break, standby), statistics posts, API keys.
Web board	The workspace at /dispatch/<guildId>: dispatch board, incidents, facility, personnel, documents and more. Login with Discord.
np_mdt (optional)	A FiveM resource that connects your game server: calls to dispatch, unit status, clocking in from the game, the real MDT as an in-game tablet, and a medical simulation.

The UI is German

The MDT itself is in German. These docs are in English and keep German UI labels where you'll see them literally, with an English gloss, e.g. Leitstellenblatt (dispatch board) or Einstellungen (settings).

How Discord and the web board fit together

• Every Discord server (guild) that invites the bot is its own, fully separate instance. Data, settings, terminology and API keys belong to exactly one guild.
• The Discord panel is where people clock in and out. The web board is where the shift runs: it shows who is on duty, which units are out, and everything else. Both read and write the same data, live.
• Logging in to the web board uses your Discord account. Only members of the guild get in, and what they see depends on their permissions.
• Most settings exist in both places. What /setup, /panel and /apikey configure can also be done in the web under Einstellungen → Stempeluhr (settings → time clock).

Modules

The time clock (Stempeluhr) is always on. Everything else is a module that each instance switches on or off; disabled modules disappear from the navigation and from the API.

Module	Key	What it is
Leitstellenblatt	board	Dispatch board: who's on duty, units, crews, statuses, live for everyone
Einsätze	einsatz	Incident sheets with a map of Los Santos, people involved, timeline and handover
Bürgerregister	citizens	Citizen records; which fields are visible is decided by the owner's sharing rules
Fallakten	casefiles	Case files beyond a single incident (opt-in)
Einrichtung	facility	Buildings, rooms and beds (or cells, bays …), patient files
Verletzungen	injuries	Injury marking on a 3D body model
Personal	personal	Personnel sheet: staff, ranks, qualifications, your own columns
Kalender	calendar	Absences, appointments and reminders with Discord notifications
Kurse	courses	Courses with configurable sign-up fields and pass / fail actions
Dokumente	documents	Guidelines, forms, letterheads, read rights and public read links
Postfach	postfach	Applications and contact requests from Discord as cases (opt-in)
Statistik	stats	Leaderboards and charts, posted to Discord on a schedule
Listen	lists	Free-form lists with your own columns, including counters
Lager	lager	Stock and withdrawals
Versicherungen	versicherung	Insurance contracts, quotas and billing
Websites	sites	A public website for your agency (opt-in)
TV	tv	Presentations for in-game screens, with live slides

The three opt-in modules (postfach, sites, casefiles) are off in every template, because they need setup before they show anything.

Templates and terminology

The setup wizard starts from one of four templates. A template sets the words the UI uses, the default modules and the badge prefix. All of it can be changed later.

Template	Unit	Facility	Person	Badge prefix
Rettungsdienst (EMS)	Einheit	Einrichtung	Patient	MD
Polizei (police)	Streife	Wache	Insasse	PD
Feuerwehr (fire)	Fahrzeug	Feuerwache	Betroffener	FD
Neutral	Einheit	Einrichtung	Person	none

The police template leaves out the injuries module. See Instances & permissions for the full list of terms.

Next steps

• Setup: invite the bot, run the wizard, publish the panel.
• Instances & permissions: ranks, capabilities, partner agencies.
• HTTP API: API keys and the most useful endpoints.
• np_mdt installation: connect a FiveM server.
