Begining work on this!
I have taken it upon myself the last year or so to learn gmod lua so i can start working on this mod. Now that i believe i can work on this well, I would like people to go here: https://github.com/benloz10/FinalFrontier
and mention any suggestions so I can get started, and if you would like to help. First thing's first, we will try to work out as many bugs as we can. (This should help us become familliar with the code).

you're my hero, i know learning languages isnt easy so thats awesome you did. I'm unfamiliar with github, so i couldnt find the area to leave comments for the project but maybe i just need to make an account first, ill ask my gf later she uses github and stuff so she should know.

How difficult would you say the garrys mod language was the learn? can you tell me what its based off of? and also what do you use to write the language, is it something like unreal engine where you can make use of a GUI to do it? My Yamato Nerd Cannon is charging

Gmod is written in LUA, which is a fairly simple language to learn, but still quite powerfull. I got the hang of the basics of lua withing 3 months, and then anything else i needed to know, gmod has a glorious page that shows every possible function, hook, command, etc. you could ever need for your mod. As for writing it, i use Notepad++. Having 2 monitors is quite nice as well, since i can have gmod open on one, while writing on the other, and when working on visuals, the change shows up as soon as i press Ctrl+S, so everything is in real time. The only time i have to reload, which i only need to type restart in console, is if i add any new files, and some functions prefer a fresh start.

I just got in contact with Ziks, and he is currently uploading the Github version to the workshop, so this addon should be fully up to date as of today (12/12/16)
