Love the new tool? Hate it?

Let me know what your thoughts are. With your feedback, I can work on the tool to fit more of the needs of the Garry's Mod community.

Could possibly Use a Admin Version (That lets you reset/Change all /certain props) Into Weighted Or a Differnt non admin tool like this.

I'm not sure about the text style of the label, the other style with the white lettering felt easier to read. Also, does this work on dupes if someone doesn't have the tool? The other STool doesn't work unless you're subscribed to it.

If you don't have the tool, it doesn't work unfortunately. The addon has code to modify the mass of entities after they are duped and spawned, so not having the addon means duped entities don't get their mass modified when respawned.

It's just how things work when using the duplicator library, so there's nothing we can really do about it other than copying and tweaking the code I use to register the duplicator callback. https://github.com/Mista-Tea/improved-weight/blob/master/lua/improvedweight/improvedweight.lua#L133-L149

Is it possible to make this tool area select the prop and set weight multiple props instead of clicking one by one prop?

WHy is there a limit to how heavy something can be? Its kinda pointless and I cant do what I want with this tool

50,000 is the maximum supported by the Source engine. It is not an arbitrary limitation, it is THE limitation.

Fair enough

Really cool and has a lot of uses, but seems to interfere with thrusters. Decreasing their weight decreases their thrust. I guess it makes sense since a lighter and assuming smaller engine would produce less thrust, but it gets in the way of something I'm working on, that is a Dupe that is supposed to be weightless with multidirectional thrust so that it acts like a spacecraft outside of a object's gravity

I know I can actually turn off gravity for props but it doesn't seem to be an option for seats, thrusters, etc, so I was planning on relying on this tool for that.

piece of ♥♥♥♥ doesn't save properly it resets the weight of the prop when you dupe it in theres no point in this

Can you list which duplicator tools are you using that are failing to have the weight copied over?

I am using the workshop versions of Advanced Duplicator 1 and 2, as well as the built-in Duplicator tool, and the weight is correctly copied over in all 3 cases.

regular duplicator
