📕 Description of the Documents Editor system addon for Gmod

Gmod Documents Editor system is an add-on for Garry's Mod.
Inspired by good old survival horror, this system lets you neatly place documents all over your map, where you can indicate key elements important to your game environment, history, clues, secrets, passwords, dynamic passwords and keypads to unlock doors. In addition to making passwords random and dynamic, you can define several spawn positions where they will spawn randomly each time your Gmod server is rebooted. This level of dynamism makes for a less linear system.

On the optimization side, pages are not downloaded in their entirety, but only when the player turns a page in the document, with client-side caching. In addition to being light in terms of weight, this means that the system requires as few resources as possible.

Silent Hill and Resident Evil are just a few examples of games where this kind of system can be seen. Except they're not dynamic. We know that the following sessions will always be the same, with the same puzzles, the same codes, in the same locations, so this system breaks the linear aspect. I created this system because I also like the random aspect of a game. Even if the end goal is the same, the experience is different the next time.

The integrated administration and management panel lets you manage everything without having to move.

🔎 Gmod Documents Editor system content

Gmod Documents Editor system contains:
1. A system database management panel which can also be called the admin menu.

3. 20 document styles inspired by everyday life, survival horror and medieval styles.
4. A document editing system.
5. A dynamic document reading system.
6. Simple, intuitive design.

❓ What kind of needs can Gmod Documents Editor system meet?

1. You're looking for a lightweight, optimized note system that you can place all over your map, for example to indicate a rule without writing in 3D on walls, which is visually messy and really heavy on your Gmod server.
2. You want to add elements to be read on your Gmod map with great freedom of action and space.
3. You want to add depth to your server environment.
4. You're looking for a system to hide codes and passwords on your map.
5. You no longer want large 3D text on your map, preferring a simple panel.

🎨 List of example document styles

Among the entities that you can place either vertically or horizontally, you'll find: A model of Document, Book, Fax, Folder, Logs, Love Letter, Memo, Message, News, Note, Notice, Envelope, Bloody letter, Disposal, Medieval scroll, Old Page, Medieval letter, Magic Note, Old paper, Music Note.

⚙️ The Documents administration and management panel on the map

The Gmod Documents Editor system management panel lets you manage documents without having to search for them on your map. If you're looking for them, you can teleport to them from this menu. In addition to being able to edit them, you can add other locations to them, so that they can spawn randomly at each reboot. But also link it with other compatible scripts

✔️ CompatibleGmod Addons

Gmod Documents Editor system is compatible with Gmod Keypads System and door lock manager, if you have dynamic passwords for your doors, you can link a door to a document so that the {{code}} tag you place in the text of your document is replaced by the door password defined via Gmod Keypads System

☰ 13. What is the compatibility with Gmod Keypads System and what is the added functionality?

Gmod Keypads System and door lock manager has a feature that allows you to have dynamic passwords that change themselves each time you reboot. If you're looking for a way to write them down in a document and have them automatically synchronized, this is exactly what it's all about. All you have to do is attach a door ID to the document. And the tag: {{code}} in the document. The {{code}} tag will be replaced by the door code. If you modify the door code, the code in the document will indicate the new code without you having to do anything. Rather useful.

☰ 14. How do I link a locked door code with Gmod Keypads System and a document?

Open the Gmod Keypads System door code management menu, go to the door database and retrieve the door ID. Copy this ID into the "Dynamic Code" column. In the document, the {{code}} tag will be replaced by the door password. If the password changes, the {{code}} tag will automatically change without any effort. This will allow you to have dynamic secrets on your Gmod server. 0 redundancy. Resident Evil 2 Remake (RE 3 Remake is the same thing...) may be a 60€ game, but you only play it once. You know that subsequent sessions will always be the same, with the same puzzles, the same codes, in the same locations, but this system is totally the opposite. It was his games that inspired me to create this system.
