Migration

rcore_housing can import existing properties from other housing resources, so you keep your players' homes when switching.

Two sources are supported out of the box:

• vms_housing

• qs-housing

The migration reads from the source resource's tables - it never deletes or alters them. Your old housing tables stay untouched, so you can roll back at any time.

Anything that has no 1:1 equivalent in rcore_housing is not thrown away - it is preserved in migration_source so it can be re-applied to those properties later via future updates.

Always back up your database before migrating. rcore_housing does not touch your old housing tables, but a fresh backup is the safe way to recover if anything goes wrong on your server.

▶️ Running a Migration

Run the matching command in your server console for the source you are migrating from:

vms_housing

migratehouses vms_housing

qs-housing

migratehouses qs_housing

Once it finishes, restart rcore_housing and your migrated properties will be live.

🗄️ Preserved Source Data

Skipped fields are stored on each migrated property in the migration_source column. This means:

• You do not lose any data the source resource held.

• Nothing is removed from your original vms_housing / qs-housing database tables.

• As rcore_housing adds matching features in future updates, the preserved values can be applied back to these properties.

If your migration is missing something or doesn't cover your setup, just reach out to us - we'll figure it out together.
