Bruhs I don't even have time to make these development progress updates with all the things being updated on the server - we've had well over 200 changes and additions to the server. I'll try and condense the list to only include things that I think are relevant
Mayor Laws System
ENTIRELY RE-WRITTEN
Introduced Casino tax to be used in the future (not live yet but completed code)
Legal laws do not draw on your HUD (only illegal items are explicitly stated)
Added easy toggle switch to enable/disable laws
Added back numerical sorting of laws
Added explicit warnings for Lottery letting the mayor know when they can start their next lottery.
Added up to 3 custom laws that mayors can write themselves
Day Night System
Re-create from scratch, allowing for proper dynamic lighting on the map, so at night, the map genuinely gets darker
Day
Afternoon
Night
Casino
Re-introduced to the server with our own heavily modified pCasino featuring strictly slot machines for the time being
NLR Zones
dsadsa
MVP
Created a secondary rank players can hold for up to 30 days at a time, called MVP.
At $10 a month this package offers an additional printer, a CCTV camera tool, +10 prop limit, and 25% stackable discount in Pointshop. Effectively making things 35% cheaper if you're already a VIP.
Gangwar System
Leaders of gangs may now declare a gang war against one another (each gangwar lasts 15 minutes, with a 30 minute cooldown)
The gang war will include a leaderboard placed on the top left corner of your screen, besides the lawboard
And throughout chat you'll be able to keep track of progress in real-time
Deadpool
A hitman role which features HP regeneration
Batman
A high level Police role featuring throwable batarangs and a mildly ineffective grappling hook. Suggested by your local minge Candy
Bugs & Miscellaneous
Players can no longer weld Keypads
Ropes and Constraints were blacklisted from Adv Dupe
Disabled unfreezing keypads
Fixed issue could bypass spawning unfrozen/nocollided props with adv dupe
Fixed issue where players could create ropes that are insanely long for their lights
Fixed duping exploit in inventory system x2 x3 x4 times
10% Buff to M1918 BAR
Reintroduced AFK slaying feature
Removed forced-jump/kill from Checkers gamemode
Props now provide a 75% reduction to damage from RPG rounds/explosions for balancing
Fixed a billion random/harmless errors
Disabled physgunning props that are attached to lights
Raised Clown limit to 4
Added a search function to the Party system
Added E push function for Clowns, allowing you to push other players onto bananas
Optimized the server across the months for a 10% boost in server performance, and ~20% improvement in client FPS
Entirely re-written the precision tool
Cut down 3d2d max text length per row to 54 (270 characters total)
Removed all outdated data from our databases of inactive players who hadn't visit the server in over 4 years
Re-wrote precision tool featuring a new "Relative to World mode" which moves the prop on a fix X/Y/Z axis following the map's orientation
Added Popcorn cart and Popcorn eating SWEP for the cinema owner to sell
Given Venom a unique ability to double jump and land on the ground, causing players to be flung away, as well as create a small earthquake (30 second cooldown)
Eating food will cause your playermodel's belly to grow until you throw up
Included this for record keeping:
Halloween
The Anticipated Spooktacular Halloween Update! Garnet Gamers, before moving onto the points of the new update, just know our server was moved to a 24-hour restart schedule, and all previously disabled code is back (DJ Radio, Dumpster Diving, and more, with perfroamnce being better than ever - as I re-wrote ALOT of our server the past week)
Seizure Warning @everyone The server now contains SOME flashing lights, jump scares, and other effects that while very unlikely to trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy, I wanted to still issue a viewer discretion. If you are susseptible to seizures, please consider adjusting your display settings!
MORE HALLOWEEN-THEMED CONTENT THAN EVER BEFORE
Prepare to run into ghosts that stalk you in the shadows! Random paranormal sightings, invisible lurky creatures following you, and even holding some doors across the map shut. All that ontop of our offerings from previous years, including candy collections and Pumpkin Boss fights!
Backrooms
Like every year in the past, the backrooms are back with Pinhead's hook, he may be swapped out for another creature with a new limited-timer reward, so stay tuned as we get coser to Halloween eve!

This has been suggested before but you should be the one making the pole and finding the skins because I doubt garnet has time for all of this.
Yes, thank you. Please post specific ideas for models (although I don't recommend John Wick or any identifiable characters)

As mentioned, this can already be done without necessitating an entirely new class.

Oop - Ghostly asked for forward/back in-game and I added it in
Will be up the next restart. You will be able to still press "R" to cycle between up/down/left/right/forward/back

Oh crap, thank you for the reminder
I will wrap this up for the next restart, Mayors will be allowed up to 3 custom laws!

Sadly i'd prefer to not risk child pornography or other horrific images on the server. Would not entertain this idea even if it was only for higher staff.

I'm really not trying to get to that point

Regardless of whether the players online are others' printer alts, they still degrade server performance. For each player online, there is one extra array of data the server has to sort through every few miliseconds, so just because the props aren't being used, doesn't mean I can increase the prop limit. In the event that there are no printer alts on, we would have 100 players with far too many props for the server to handle. If there was a way to allow only a few players allocated extra props as a reward for being good builders who don't solely focus on basing, that'd be doable. As of right now, I'm looking to squeeze any extra props out for those wanting to buy a higher VIP tier if I add one in the future.

The reason I re-wrote the precision tool is because the original is very crash prone, I unfortunately will not be using the crappy default one written 8 years ago, but I did re-write the precision tool strictly based off of this post, to be a better version of itself.
It's been broken up to work in the classic way (view) or World (fine tweaking based off of world position)
Additionally, I added a preview of where your prop will move to:

Unfortunately the only way I will honor the addition of new roles would be if they were introduced to all players. I don't see players spending $100 on a hobo class or something similar being a popular feature at all.
-
Thank you for reminding me, the Bank Robber role isn't necessary anymore, I opened up bank robbing to all thief classes.
Will unfortunately have to decline this since i'm removing the role (it's obsolete)

This will never be a thing, many months a year Garnet runs at a complete loss (generally December-February and June-August is when we save enough money to operate the remainder of the year) I am NOT AT ALL in the interest of making our server anymore free-to-play than it already is by surrendering vip feature, that is just flat out asking too much.
On 10/14/2024 at 3:39 PM, heart said:you no longer receive vip when you get staff now sadly
Staff ALWAYS get free VIP.
-
This suggestion is just far too vague, feel free to request a handful of props to be re-whitelisted in separate suggestion posts, that was I can more easily explain to you why they are on the blacklist (IE: gears and 360 props being able to crash the server), or in the event that they're incorrectly in the blacklist, I will happily whitelist them :D.
-
Feel free to suggest specific models to be added as opposed to a blanket statement of "the playermodels"
Going to lock, and again, feel free to re-create this post with more specific details.

Hey buddy, sorry there's not much documentation on them. I finished death animations and go incredibly busy with life/school.

Our most underrated feature (probably because most of it is paid-for) is the death animations :^(
Instead of non-ceremonially having your lifeless fucking corpse fall to the ground, you can now instead have a naruto-inspired substitution jutsu take place, and rather than a corpse, you'll turn up into a fog, followed by a stray plank falling to the ground
Video demonstration (substitution jutsu and charred corpse)

Sadly there's no option to just flat-out toggle the "dynamic skybox" as you called it, but being that I spent another year or two optimizing the server, I'm not opposed to adding it back and seeing where performance sits. One of my gripes with that feature is nighttime wouldn't actually make the map darker, just the skybox black.
Edit: Spent about 2-3 hours on the day-night system and managed to give it dynamic lighting
this way the map gets darker at nighttime

There was no discussion to be made, and as such, the thread was closed. You knowingly defied my simple instructions and proceeded to cry when you were met with the predefined consequence.
However...seeing as we've completely disabled the flashlight function on the server, you can no longer be a nuisance with it...I don't mind if you return for now, just don't be an issue again.That man driving you mad with his little flashlight bind is the sole reason we removed the flashlight

Ooffff, the past 2 months have seen an intense amount of new content and gameplay optimizations
*NEW* Clown *NEW*
Once again, I have proved to the world that I am elite at generating the best roles that GMod servers have seen, with my latest innovation being the Clown role
Prestige 1 - Level 8
Left Mouse Button - Honk an annoying bike horn
Right Mouse Button - Drop a banana peel on the floor that other players will inevitably slip on
VIDEO DEMONSTRATION THAT IS NOT STAGED AT ALL
Casino
Re-introcued a partially re-written version of our last casino, with multiple tiered slot machines
In the next upcoming months, I will revamp some old machines, IE: poker and re-introduce them to the server

Pet System
The Pet System has been added onto our server
Pets have been partially re-written and changed around to be optimized, if your computer was made in 2010 and Pets are causing an FPS loss to your game session, they will throttle their own behavior in order to boost your FPS, and if that doesn't work, pets will automatically be disabled for you!
HUGE thank you to the TERA community for publicly releasing their source code for pets!
Police System
Warrant
Increased Search Warrant expiration time from 1 minute to 3 minutes
Mayor Laws
Mayor law: Hazards | SEE CARD merged with boot throwing
numbering of laws
Removed display of legal laws for redundancy (only illegal laws should be shown to players)
Police Radio
A Radio SWEP has been added for police officers with the capability to quickwant users for intelligent reasoning (WIP).
The Radio SWEP can wanted players with a simple left mouse button click if they are lockpicking/keypad cracking a base, or you had witnessed the player murdering another user in downtown. Even during a lockdown, this radio can detect whether a player is out in the streets violating lockdown laws.
Right click will create a dispatch to which all police officers will be able to report to!
Administrative
Logging
Added detailed administrative logging for when players are hired by other players, or their contracts have expired.
added mugging logs, hardcoded
Utility
Introduced PropBan which disallows players from spawning props for a duration (due to abusive behavior). Allowed T. Admin+ access.
Bugs & Miscellaneous
Improved server connect times by 25% by consolidating files and removing unused code. Our join times were already sub 1 minute :D.
Fixed the ability to physgun weapons dropped directly from inventory
increased voice radius by 30%, allowing players to hear one another from further away
Updated DarkRP to the latest version and re-merged all the Garnet proprietary modules (optimizations, hireable roles, etc)
Partially recoded the DJ Radio, providing the server a 7.8% performance boost on average.
Corrected the behavior of Bail NPC, allowing the mayor to enable/disable bails.
Added back the $500 minimum requirement for /dropmoney, and made dropped money wear away and despawn after 5 minutes.
Corrected issue where Staff On Duty would get a cut of PD payout
Disabled the writecheck command and its variants.
Added automated timer to remove invalid lights with no owner
Added income tax to hireable roles
Fixed issue where certain HL2 voicelines would not trigger properly
Corrected issue where votes/polls would stay on a player's screen indefinitely

Good news, this was already planned!
In a future update, the Police Radio SWEP will be used for reporting "littering" applying to both Clowns throwing banana peels in the streets, as well as Hobo throwing their boots
Oops, i'm not on my Nutter account.

I didn't know how bad the situation was when it was free, I am sorry I joined probably after it was behind vip
There is really nothing to apologize for, I just wanted to give a complete answer to why i'm shutting down teh suggestion after you went out of your way to write it up!
Very few people were around when Adv Dupe 2 was free, and holy, players with 500+ hours would get raided, and crash the server with it, or entirely propblock the base of those who raided them haha.
Going to lock and move

Our server is one of the few that are not ridden by everything fun being VIP walled. This is not a look at how good of an owner I am type of post, but I work on our servers day in and day out for hours to basically just scrape by financially and making penny on a dime for not making things pay-to-enjoy. I am unfortunately not going to make one of our very few VIP offerings become free. Wouldn’t even consider it.
AFK on the server to get endless VIP trials if you want advanced dupe, I already have you a hand
Ps
While advanced duplicator was initially locked because of 1 billion exploits, these days it’s purely a financial choice. I want to make that clear.

Streamlining Updates with Changelogs
in Server Updates
Posted
Hello Garnet Gaming people,
I've been hard at work updating our server for ALMOST a full decade now, and it took me this long to finally realize that i'd been spending too much time on the monthly "Update" section, and it is not even getting the amount of attention it used to. Not only that, but making these posts was taking away from what I enjoy doing, which is bringing you guys new content.
As a result of the aforementioned, I've decided to change the format of our updates to "Changelogs"!
Rather than compile a long list of updates on a weekly/month/quarterly fashion, I will instead leave a comment on a thread dedicated to each server as I go, detailing on all new features - which will make things much easier/more manageable. All updates moving forward (once tested) will be shared in real-time. Every time I or one of the higher staff members implements something new, fixes a bug, or makes an improvement, you’ll see a new comment. Hopefully moving forward, no new features go unnoticed because of a huge monthly or quarterly post summary
(as happened for MANY small features unfortunately, IE: if you eat food on DarkRP, your stomach will literally expand and you'll poop more, a gamechanging update).
As always, thank you for being a part of the community that seems to just keep on going lmao
