Ducky's Crash Protection (READ DESCRIPTION)

i feel like this mod fulfills its intended purpose pretty well when configured right, but it's only really useful when you either have a potato pc that crashes at a light breeze or are playing with a friend that's new to the game and does not understand that setting off 500 bombs is prone to crashing the game.
the way the mod works is intuitive, but it's not exactly a cure-all for game crashes, the kind of crash that most often happens to me while playing gmod is when things suddenly go from normal FPS to a complete freeze, and because the game is frozen at a consistent 0 FPS there's no way the mod or even the player can send the command to clean up the map.
not a bad mod, but due to it not really protecting from those surprise crashes, it's not very useful to someone who already knows their computer's limits. although, if you do have a bad habit of crashing your own game, then heck yeah this mod is for you

@GordonSigma
Are you kidding?
Didn't you read the comments on the ActMod page if you follow along?
Anyway, the update might be due next month or in September. At the beginning of next month, I'll set a release date for the next update.

@AhmedMake400 Yo, are you gonna update actmod or not? If not, why? Is it because its already perfect? (Which I think so since it already has like dozens or heck, even hundreds of emotes)

Honestly, this isn't very useful. Sometimes the game even freezes when doing something, which causes FPS drops and triggers an automatic cleanup. It's a basic feature ( just cleaning up when FPS drops ) and not something special. Older or other addons already do the same. This addon isn’t really useful or unique, and it might’ve even been made by ChatGPT. It's a simple idea and not advanced or helpful in any real way.

I beat kids for breakfast 24 Jul @ 2:53am 
it won't fucking stop cleaning up everything every 5 motherfucking seconds
Unknown Developer 24 Jul @ 1:29am 
my god, this is literally garbage written by ChatGPT, there's no chance of this actually preventing a server crash, the workshop is degenerating by the day...
RG 23 Jul @ 8:06pm 
this is awesome, thanks bro. i really hope you could add something like it saves the game before it clears everything just in case if you were building something and it's just gone :steamthumbsup:
EchoHedron 23 Jul @ 4:06pm 
Thanks for this. I think this happens after I GMOD for too much and enough memory is taken up... but that's only my assumption. If this helps, kudos 2 you.

Dude, this mod is SUCH A W. Thank you for bringing this around man! No more waiting, you're saving a LOT of servers with this right here. :praisesun:

shits fucked bro
Mr. Baconator 23 Jul @ 10:39am 
Thank you for this!!! Every time I play with one of my friends, they make it their mission to crash the server before the others can join. They can't do it no more, and I no longer have to spam the clean up button. Thank you!!!
Sunny 23 Jul @ 6:39am

Stand_Up 22 Jul @ 9:23pm 
Very cool addon, I'm sick of having my game crash mid single player campaign or just me getting too ambitious with my npc battle, this should be a good safe guard against all having the entire game crash on me.
