Description
About the Mod
I thought of bringing collectathon game play in gmod, since I haven't seen any around (or maybe I was not looking hard enough) So here it is!

Pons are entities that are collected by getting close or shooting it, and is dynamically generated on any map with AI NODES . Satisfy your crave of collecting collectibles as you go around exploring maps! As some of you might be familiar with the name it is Indeed from the name of the collectibles of the game Hat in Time

Configurations of this mod is unlocked through custom achievements in which my goal is to provide a sense of progression.


Features
- PONS.. PONS EVERYWHERE
- Custom Achievements for the mod
- Dalogues as you unlock achievements
- Collect Pons by going near it, or shooting it, or using explosions
- Collect Pons to unlock more configurations and make collection rewarding
- Dynamic generation of pons on any map with AI NODES
- Check out your collection of pons by chatting '!pons'
- See how many pons are left in the map by chatting '!ponsleft'
- Pons will provide money (After getting a certain achievement) if Sandbox Weapon Shop and Money System is installed

Possible FAQ
No Pons are spawning!
- No AI NODES, No Pons. You can spawn them manually in entities though (assuming you unlocked it)

Console Commands?
- I discourage you on using it if you ever find it, as it will ruin the progression of the mod. Can't stop you from using though.

Its so Grindy
- it's to compliment map-to-map exploration and is not meant to finish all achievements in one map.


Like and Favorite if you loved it! ^w^

Hey, this specific mod spams console with
"Checking collision:
Entity 1: npc_alyx | Entity 2: player" once there's NPCs around.

Also, this is a really lovely mod!! :)

Honestly this goes kinda hard if you spawn in a npc to chase you around while you collect them

are the pons the same for everyone or each client has it's own pons

I know about the spawners I had planed on using them. Insane stats to add some Looter shooter RPG elements, and a coop gamemode to add stakes to dying and to disable the Q menu. (I often make small edits to addon code to get things to work together or interact in a way I like for my own personal uses.). When you do map change on completion I would recommend allowing the users some control over what maps can be used. Whitelists and Blacklists stuff like that.

@Democratic Ice Noodle

You can actually add NPC spawners using other mods like:
Sandbox Notoriety
Zinv
Cutta's Dynamic NPC Spawner

It's a sandbox so shape however you like with other mods :SelicyGrin:

And the map change on pon completetion was in my radar, but I might add it

Could be cool to get it this to work with a coop gamemode, insane status, npc and item spawners, and perhaps get it to detect when you find them all and change maps.

I've posted a feature request to your addon's discussions, if you want to have a look.

I've tried hosting a 2 player server from the menu, both Peer-To-Peer and regular. No change. Again, I think this is something I did by accident rather then your addon, as the tab scoreboard doesn't show me in the usual admin golden background, even though ULX recognizes me as oeprator.
