Y'know its kinda pointless to make 10+ talker mods to be usable on Local Server only?
Make a mod fix for multiplayer idk, because you make useless mod by making them "Local Server Only".

yeah or just jumble them all into one instead of spreading them out like this. kind of bloats the already bloated workshop

There is no such thing as a "mod fix for multiplayer" for mods like this. Official Valve servers are running the game's default scripts/code, which means that mods adding/changing scripts are ignored.

Not really pointless given how simple it is to host a local server lol

They already did do that
Also ngl the workshop being bloated with neat little scripts is very much preferrable over a lot of other stuff lol

Okay, lets imagine that im a multiplayer player. That never makes lobby and join alredy existing one. (becuase host it by yourself with bots have a big chance of not getting players at all

And most of my workshop compatable with player's local/official servers? (im not playing versus because its, a pretty messy sh1thole).

And there a man, what can't emulate audio playback on player side? We have VOX mod man. What stopping a dude to make the same thing but with custom voicelines lol?

99% of things on the workshop cannot overwrite Valve's scripting on their official servers which is you know, why people play on their own custom servers in the first place lol.

I do agree that it bloats the workshop page, but there isn't that much that can be done about it. The only thing I can think of is creating a collection and unlisting all but the newest mod in order to not have them show up on the workshop page. You could still get them by going to the collection.

I do find that this one deserves front page. Stuff that isn't possible with the normal talker is what I find far more interesting. I also find that giving people the option as to which talker features they want is good as opposed to all or nothing.

Knowing how fun modded servers are (nobody likes it). I don't think that ppl are getting fun out of it. I prefer vanila only - because again. I can mod game myself. But how then VOX triggers literaly everyone's voicelines then? I seen some ppl spamming with this sh1t so its annoying

You're thinking of vocalizers, which are one of the few exceptions (mainly because it's just manually playing voicelines) and aren't comparable to custom code adding new dialogue functions

Also there are plenty of custom servers that are just running vanilla gameplay (like for playing custom/community-made campaigns), and it's incredibly easy to host one yourself given local hosting is literally a default menu option

It's not an excuse, I explained the misconceptions you had and offered a potential solution
