Particle Maker Stool Etiquette
Now listen up boys and girls, it's time to learn the dos and donts of the particle tool! First, a quick refresher course.
Now armed with that knowledge you are ready to set out into the world of particles. A few rules for the servers:
- For the love of god don't make a .001 firing rate 100 particle shot cannon of server death. I'll hang you for it.
- Also keep your velocities nice and low, too high and you'll crash all our clients and make Axim and Amirite sad
- If you need help figuring something out, ask someone (Like me!) who might know what they're doing before you go off tinkering with stuff. Actually this is a pretty good rule for just about anything Gmod related.
- It pains me to say this because I enjoy it far too much, but try not to bug people by blasting particles in their faces. Unless they like it of course.
Overall, the particle tool should be treated with respect. It's a handy dandy way to add myriad fancy effects to your contraptions, but can also provide a good bit of entertainment. Just keep things smart and try not to crash the server.
I will give impromptu lessons in the proper use of the particle tool to all who ask me in game. I expect things will be a little bit crashy while people learn the ropes, but like everything else in gmod it should settle down soon enough as people get a handle on how things work.
CLASS DISMISSED.
