What is Lua Protection

A Lua encryption/obfuscation engine — rename, strings, and protection layers — while preserving runtime contracts (events, SQL, exports).

When to use it

  • Manual path — after merging boot into server.lua.
  • Automated path — applied automatically during build.

Limits

This page does not auto-merge boot — you are responsible for integrating fivem_serverBoot before manual-path upload.

Detailed in-dashboard guide remains in "Lua Encryption Guide" tab — this page provides planning-level context.
