1. 🚀 Presentation of NPCs Spawn Point Creator

The NPCs Spawn Point Creator is a gmod addon specialized in the generation and creation of Npcs and Nextbot spawn points on your map, to automatically animate your gmod servers.

Especially dedicated to Npcs and Nextbot the system allows you to create several spawn points, to configure a spawn perimeter where you can use only one point that can spawn several npcs in a large perimeter that you can define in metric unit.
It is also possible to assign them default equipment such as weapons, provided that the Npcs works properly with the weapons.

Optimize your servers by predefining a spawn condition if there are players nearby, in fact, don't spawn any more npcs where there are no players, in order to optimize your server's processor and also its bandwidth in the case of a badly optimized map. This activation and deactivation distance is configurable from the interface of each point with a simple button.

Create rare npcs, by modifying the spawn chance of a npc, or create spawn points of bosses with a lot of life points (editable life points from the spawn interface), or npcs that are weak as well as resistant. Indeed it is possible to choose the health points that the npcs generated by the NPCs Spawn Point Creator must have. If you have decided that a bump must have 1000 life points. Then click on Life in the box of the Npc from the interface and drag the slider to get the value 1000, I did my best to make it easy to use and easy to understand by translating the script in several languages : 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇬🇪 🇮🇹 🇯🇵 🇰🇷 🇳🇴 🇷🇺 🇪🇸 🇸🇪.

Optimize client-side FPS by choosing whether your Npcs or Nextbot spawn with their shadows or not from a single button.

On the management side, I usually create a mini ESP that I call : AdminEyes, which allows to see all the spawn points of npcs on your map. That's why you can name a spawn point, give it a color and an icon. To help you to have a good visual on your organization. And also to allow your staff members to better organize themselves and to have an overview when working as a team.

Regarding the definition of the rally point, by setting a position to the NPC from the interface, will have the effect that after its spawn, your NPC will start to join the point you have defined. Useful when you want your NPCs to spawn out of the field of vision of your players.


2. ⚡️ The different optimization tools

Today the maps on Gmod are huge. And the more they are huge the more they seem empty. Because it is impossible to fill it with Npcs without consequence on the performances. This system allows to despawner Npcs when players are far from the zone. And to make them respawning when the players approach it.

Optimization is an important key point in this script various little tricks to avoid overloading and to give the impression that the server is full of life with Npcs and Nextbot.

2.1 Optimize your server bandwidth and server CPU
With the distance related optimization module, define if the spawn works or not when there are no players in its radius, the panel allows you to choose the distance in meters. For example if you set the distance to 50m, the spawn will generate the npcs you have configured if there are players in the perimeter.

2.2 Npcs and Nextbot removal system when players are no longer in the area
The delete module allows you to delete npcs if the players are no longer in the zone. This frees up considerable resources for your server since NPCs are mostly the entities that consume the most resources on your server.
