UUIS: Universal Union Item Spawner

Description
This addon allows you to finely control item spawns (or spawns of any SENT, really) on your Garrysmod server. It supports weighted spawning (some things can spawn more often than others, in other words), spawning at complete random or at pre-specified points, adding items "on the fly" while the server is running, and some other crap I can't remember right now. It also includes a system that allows players to drop all their weapons and ammo upon death.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Simply install UUIS. It should work out of the box. You can disable/enable item spawning with the convar UUIS_enabled.

You can add new spawnpoints by using the uuis_add_spawnpoint concmd; to make UUIS actually use them, set uuis_use_pointlist to 1. If there are no spawnpoints for a given map, UUIS will revert to spawning at complete random until a spawnpoint is added.

There are many other concmds, which can be listed with the "find uuis_" command.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:

I created this addon for the Universal Union Survivalbuild server. Visit their group page here!

nothing seems to spawn, with or without spawnpoints, what is the cause?

No matter how i look at it, the "uuis_add_spawnpoint" command isn't there. Am i doing something wrong?

Nope, just sandbox.

@SajLenc

Weight is a number, things where you put a bigger number in will appear more often than things where you put a smaller number. The item name has to be GMod's internal name for the item you want; I think you can get it by right clicking things in the weapons/entities menu? At least you could back in 2014.

Taost Eng. That's understandable. But maybe it'll work if i try other gamemodes. Back when you created this, did you test it with other gamemodes?

uuis_add_item weight itemname
where do I find weight and itemname?

I mean, this addon is 5 years old, it might just be broken. uuis_add_spawnpoint is only available if you are an admin (which you always are when you're playing single player)

The command "uuis_add_spawnpoint" doesn't seem to even exist.
