Upon one prop having more than 345 of one constraint (345 ropes, 345 no-collides, etc.) the tool will report the error below (the number in "ReadType: Couldn't read type ___" being inconsistent) and not show the constraints.


[constraint_remover_tool_662989315] lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:189: net.ReadType: Couldn't read type 176
1. error - [C]:-1
2. ReadType - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:189
3. ReadType - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:132
4. ReadType - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:132
5. ReadTable - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:132
6. func - addons/constraint_remover_tool_662989315/lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/constraintremover.lua:126
7. unknown - lua/includes/extensions/net.lua:33


I was working on a gigantic piece of rope art and I couldn't erase some long past rope without undo'ing all the way back to it as it had more than 345 ropes (800 or something). What a tragedy, I have to start over :(

(plsfix (if possible (pleashe)))

Could you add a function that gives all the constrains to the owner, a fix for WAC conflicting with FALCO.

Great tool but props flicker red when highlighted for me, it really messes with my eyes

The NoCollide tool will leave entities nocollided too when the constraint is removed, however I've looked a bit into it and I'll update this addon with a fix to that.

Constraint Remover won't remove NoCollide on props. I press Reload to remove the NoCollide, the INDICATOR for the NoCollide constraint goes away, but the prop is still NoCollided. And no other tool of mine can restore its collision.

do you know if there is anything that can remove invisable walls on maps?

It should be able to remove anything registered as a constraint in Garry's Mod, even custom ones such as wire motor.

Could it remove ropes?

if u add that feature, constraint info would be r i p

If you mean a GUI like constraint info, then no, it does not have that, you do see all constraints attached to the targeted entity though.

good tool, not as buggy as constraint info, but u can't view constraints xd
