  1. Awesome stuff @Bizzy !!

    Just a note about the cinema, if you need to adjust the volume (you will) you can do so via the Windows volume mixer and turn "gmod.exe" down without affecting the rest of your game's volume.

    Also, the "allow visitor queue/skip" options aren't working. No weapons/props disables weapons permanently even after you leave the cinema
     

    Issues have been fixed in the latest update!

    Playtime?:226 hours

    This is not true, you have a bit over 57 hours:

    | expergamer has played for 57:45:38.

    You can check this with /playtime <name> in-game.

    guys can you please tell this man that Bebas Neueu font looks better than roboto

    He keeps switching everything to roboto and its hurting my soul :classic_sad:

    Titles, headlines, and things that deserve grabbing your attention would look better in Bebas or another all caps font. Having everything the same font screams "graphic design is my passion"

    Please no serifs though

  4. Well thought out and potentially a cool feature to be added to the server, although I can see some edge cases where implementing this could introduce some bugs:

    • What happens when a user disconnects, and reconnects with a claimed printer? Does their printer blow up on disconnect, reconnect, or nothing happens? Can they buy new printers after reconnecting?
    • What happens when a user switches to a job that isn't supposed to own printers (CP/Hobo)? Do their printers blow immediately? If so, what prevents someone with a claimed printer switching jobs then switching back for their printers?
    • Do you foresee this working in tandem with our existing printer plugin, or will it require a total retooling of the script?
    • If a printer is claimed once, then an hour and a half later, is claimed again, how long will the printer remain before it blows? i.e. how is the remaining time calculated
    • Will non-raiding classes be allowed to claim printers?

  5. Just to be clear (hah, get it?) there are multiple glass materials that you can still use, with the literal identical prop dimensions, they are just not made out of glass, instead made of plastic or metal. Example below

    ?imw=5000&imh=5000

    ?imw=5000&imh=5000

    rockets are useless with or without the glass, u cant use them inside

    You can use them inside. Being in a party with friendly fire disabled, as well as grenades being tossed through nocollide. Nerve gas as well.

    even if so the glass makes fun rp for hobos and stuff

    There are the exact same props, with the exact same proportions on the whitelist, they are made of plastic and metal instead of glass. There are several glass materials to choose from.

    dont you have multiple base dupes with said no collided glass

    No, they are made of plastic plates.

    For those who take a more casual approach to the game, I think windows add nice detail to non-defence heavy bases

    See the second comment above.

    it is one of the few tools that help low level players from getting absolutely pulverized by higher level players

    Chris' reply about low level players not knowing about this is quite common in my experience.

    -1 butthurt rocket raider sad he cant blow people up from the outside and actually has to raid like every other player

    This isn't constructive, nor is it insightful. Go to shitpost central if you want to be an idiot.

  7. Description: Add the glass plate, curve, angle and dome props to the prop blacklist.

    Reasoning: If you didn't know already, glass props act in a similar way as terrain, or part of the map, in garry's mod. They prevent m9k's weapons from penetrating props with splash damage, in a manner that is unique to a small selection of the prop whitelist. As I've stated in the post here, the rules heavily favor the defenders of a base in a raid. Multiple (sometimes more than 3) peeks, sniper angles from the very back of the base, and it is now common to encounter bases that utilize glass props to prevent splash damage. As long as I've played the server, a properly built base has always been extremely difficult to raid. However, in the past, not many players utilized glass props. Explosives were less common too, but players in general have gotten better at building. In my rule update post a bit ago I outlined a rule (max 3 fading doors operated by button per base) that would help, but glass props are uniquely punishing to raiders. Again, splash damage is one of the only tools a raider has at their disposal. Taking this away makes it impossible to raid properly built bases.

    Additional Information: Below is a list of glass props I've proposed to be added to the prop blacklist:

    glass_angle180
    glass_angle360
    glass_angle90
    glass_curve180x1
    glass_curve180x2
    glass_curve360x1
    glass_curve360x2
    glass_curve90x1
    glass_curve90x2
    glass_dome180
    glass_dome360
    glass_dome90
    glass_plate1x1
    glass_plate1x2
    glass_plate2x2
    glass_plate2x4
    glass_plate4x4

    +1 to everything except the prostitute rules, just seems unnecessary

    Sure, I'm just trying to figure out what could be a way for the recently added Pimp job to relate to the older Prostitute job to interact with each other, and to distinguish the job in a way so it's unique to related jobs, like Pet.

    I think all classes besides cp should be able to own a printer. I think all classes should be entitled to any weapon of choice. I like the pretty format and colors as well.

    Appreciate the love homie. What do you think about currently existing jobs? For example hobo, who can't use keypads for fading doors. I don't think they should be allowed to print, it's just not the purpose of the job imo

  10. Great update! Do you think it would be worth exploring adding a rule prohibiting the use of engines (cheating in chess)? This would be extremely easy to detect (not with another in-game plugin, manually) as the accuracy of a player using an engine would be extremely close to 100%. Also, it's 2022, and I'm not sure if the racist jokes on the splash page being our first impression on potential new players is the best -- it sends a message that racism is allowed on the server, when in the rules it's clearly not.

    Thanks for your attention on DRP.
