Help Getting Started

Post by iCreate »

Hello all! I just got a server and need some help getting it set up.

The plan is to be able to use multiple gamemodes through some sort of voting system for the gamemodes, but the first one I want to install is prop hunt. I have the collection id field filled and the api key filled as well but nothing seems to be happening(downloading) when I restart the server or Websync it.

Any help would be appreciated!

I would suggest enabling condebug, which is available on the Server Control tab of our control panel, then restarting the server. This will create a console.log file inside of your /garrysmod/ folder that you can reference for any problems in relation to the Workshop downloads when the server first boots.

Ah yes, I finally discovered that it was doing it correctly.

I think I actually now understand how to switch gamemodes and maps.

One question I do still have is what addons do most admins use to make their life easier, such as one that lowers the amount of typing I need to do when switching maps, settings, or gamemodes?

Alright sweet, just what I needed.

Another question, can I add comments to the Example.lua file(The one with the workshop links), and is it the double hypen "--" to do so?
