[GAMEMODE] AI Battle (BETA)

The main reason this is still a beta version is that, at this stage, AI is too dumb to create truly interesting challenges—at least free models. Plus, it's too slow—again, at least free models. You have to wait about a minute to get a challenge, and even then, it's far from perfect.


In this game mode, levels are created by real AI. No procedural generation—only AI. This has been made possible thanks to OpenRouter API. OpenRouter provides free access to multiple models and has a pretty large quota (about 50 requests for free models). 50 requests are more than enough for gameplay. I only hit the limit once while developing this mode, and you can bypass it simply by creating a second account.


You need to obtain an API KEY Groq[groq.com] or OpenRouter[openrouter.ai] (default: Groq). Then, you must select a model or use the default one (deepseek-r1-distill-llama-70b). Below is a table of available ConVar settings in this mode:

OpenRouter, Groq — awesome free AI APIs


If you try paid models and get significantly better results than free ones, please share them in Garry's Mod Republic[discord.gg]. Even if you achieve great results with free models, feel free to send them there—we'd love to see them!
Also, join Garry's Mod Republic[discord.gg] if you want to find teammates for this mode.


Previously, OpenRouter was the main provider (if you can call it that), but I was recommended Groq, which turned out to be much faster while maintaining decent quality. However, you can still switch back to OpenRouter—just make sure to specify a model from OpenRouter rather than Groq.
