Oh no way there's a sequel to this? That's excellent, I will check it out!

Feel like this mod deserves some 2025 refresher update to help address said underneath map spawning issue. I love what this is capable of though. It's made making my Gmod Realism films on YouTube a lot easier.

I love this mod but i am having issues with npcs spawning underneath certain maps while using different spawning methods such as ai node spawning, why is this? Any solutions?

I find having both ZINV coffee edition and this mod is the ideal npc spawning setup. I use your spawner for nextbots since ZINV doesn't do nextbots.

Gonna experiment right now trying this instead of ZINV. Thanks for keeping this updated unlike ZINV as well.

Oh woah, this seems like a good alternative to ZINV coffee edition?
