If you want to create your addons learn Lua first (or C#, but I'd recommend Lua as there is a LOT more you can do using the Scripting Lang afaik). That's what the "scripts" are written in. You can also use C#.

You can look at the FiveM documentation on their website (https://docs.fivem.net/). I haven't looked at in a while but the previous "documentation" (The Wiki), was pretty terrible.

RAM is an interesting question when it comes to FiveM servers. It all depends on addons, and players. But generally speaking, I used to run a server way back, that would get 32 players (daily), and I had about 100 scripts on it. The server never exceeded 1GB. Generally, you could run a FiveM server with 512MB, and most likely it would be fine. If you want to have loads of scripts, cars, etc and want to be 100% safe, get a 1GB VPS.

Hope this helped.

Out of curiousity, what did you do to get these 32 Players? Not asking for a spoon feed. But from what i can see there is jack shit all advertising methods out there for servers, its pretty much just luck hoping that players will find you.

This was before all the Paetron shit. So I was using the server name to include details about the server, then telling my dedicated players to join in (people who had applied for staff positions, PD officers, etc). Once the server had 5-10 people, more people started to join. So once we had about 15 people, the server would be full within an hour.

TL;DR: Find a dedicated group of people, have a nice server name, and have 5-10 people on, and STAY online for a while.
