Does the dupe tool still crash servers on gmod?
« on: October 17, 2014, 01:07:55 PM »
Many many years ago I restricted the dupe tool with URS because it was mad easy to crash the server using it, is it still that way now? I have too big of a community to risk unrestricting it.

Prop spam will still crash servers, no matter what tool is used.
Dupe tools just make it quicker to do. (Spawn 20+ props at a time rather than 1)

That being said, it's my understanding Gmod is slightly more stable "out of the box".
Prop spam still demands memory and cpu horsepower though.

What I mean is the problem use to be in saving dupes, it would crash the server using the regular dupe tool
