StarwarsRP Update [01/27/2021]

[Nutter 15,155]

A short notice to players who are not members of CloneWarsRP and appear to be upset about the amount of attention this server has been getting...

I'd like to ask for you to please take into consideration the fact that CWRP is a breath of fresh air for me, after doing MilitaryRP and DarkRP for almost 10 years now, and largely being burnt out from the routines of editing maps, weapon configs, and alot of repetitive motions. 
I am still very much interested in updating our other servers (and I have been) but at this exact moment, ensuring our community thrives and grows within Garry's Mod is my priority, and CloneWarsRP is temporarily my primary focus as we are able to reach out to a new audience. Not only that, but I'm trying to bring CloneWarsRP to be on-par with our other servers in a months period, whereas our other servers were gradually brought up over YEARS times.

 

 

Coruscant Guard Handcuffs

Players will no longer be able to break out of handcuffs

Handcuffing players will now occur instantly, and there's no need to chase offending players

Dragging power has been improved as to disallow other players from throwing CGs off-course

 

 

 

Simulations Room

Out with the old, in with the new

Upon entering the Sims room you will be welcomed by a large projector displaying the options available for the simulations room

Once a sim is claimed by a player (possibly locking to officers only in the future)

A selection of available Sims will appear:

Once selected a sims, chat will print a message

Upon completion and as to allow new players to parttake in sims, the following will print once a user has reported back:

 

 

EDIT: THIS PORTION OF THE UPDATE WAS DELAY TO A LATER TIME, I SPENT AN UPWARDS OF 5 HOURS TRYING TO FIX AN ISSUE IN REGARDS, AND COULD NOT.

Package Delivery

A fun, passive way to earn cash and XP for new players looking to learn the map

Approach the local ARF Mailman located next to the Hall of Fame entryway

 

 

 

Server Optimization

A general optimization patch has been pushed, targeting NPCs and their performance.

As opposed to looping through all living NPCs at an interval, I have instead decided to allocate their unique attributes on spawn. This means NPCs spawned through different means other than those located in my own addons may be somewhat broken until I fix them for each specific implementation.

 

 

 

Context Menu

After a literal 8 hours of trial and error investigating what's causing a conflict in our server's code, I have magically found the addon and fixed our context menu

You can now easily whitelist people by simply holding C and right clicking their playermodel

 

additionally, I've re-enabled the halo effects that takes place when a player is highlighted via the context menu

This feature may be FPS intensive, but hardly used so it should not cause a major issue

 

 

 

Prop Pack

An additional ~90MB (uncompressed) worth of models has been added onto the server

All models were ported over from Clone Wars Adventures and may be used by many systems, IE: cooking quest
