🧰 Lua Error Fix
[norda_inventory_system] */sv_norda_inventory_system.lua:470: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'inventory_off' (a nil value)

🚀 Added
🔧 New public API for custom HUDs
Several API functions have been added to enable developers to retrieve real-time weather data and integrate it into their own custom HUDs:

NWeather_GetSeason() -- Returns the season ID, its name (in English) and a Material representing the season icon.
NWeather_GetWeather() -- Returns the current weather ID, its name, and the corresponding weather icon.
NWeather_GetMoonphase() -- Returns the current moon phase ID and name.
NWeather_GetTime() -- Returns the current time in numerical form + the time formatted for display (e.g. “08:01 AM”).
NWeather_GetDate() -- Returns a text string with the complete date (e.g. “27, January 2025”).
NWeather_GetTemperature() -- Returns the current temperature in °C in raw, formatted form (ex: -3, “-3°C”).
NWeather_API (console command) -- Displays all above API returns in console for debugging or quick integration.

📚 Documentation update
A section detailing the operation of each API function has been added to the official documentation.

Lines 34 to 40 of the script wiki deal specifically with the use of these functions, the values returned and their integration into a custom HUD. You can use the API keyword to quickly display the relevant lines.

✔️ Patch Lua Error
[nordahl_store_builder] sv_store_builder.lua:22: attempt to call method 'IsSuperAdmin' (a nil value)

🧱 Improved
Grade doubling is now possible: it is now possible to create several grades with the same name (duplicate grades). Previously, this operation was blocked to avoid conflicts.

🚀 Added
Possibility of customizing a Grade's unique id from the management interface.

⚡ Optimization
90% performance optimization of the depth-of-field system.

🧱 Improved
The depth-field system detects materials with transparent parts.

🧱 Improved
Possibility of disabling inventory access for certain jobs or ranks. (For example, if you want players to play as humans and zombies, zombies have no inventory.)

The option is applied in real time. This was not the case before.

🚀 Added
3 new options added: The first new option allows you to disable NWeather's soundscape. Sometimes you may prefer to have your own soundscape.

✅ New option: Delete native soundscape and light entities (Reset the settings to show them: Blue button top right / Reset NWeather Setting)
Added an option to automatically delete soundscape (trigger_soundscape, env_soundscape, etc.) and light (light, light_spot, light_dynamic, light_environment) entities present on maps.

🎯 Objective:
Optimize server performance by reducing the number of active entities and unnecessary logic.
Avoid visual and sound conflicts with the addon's custom dynamic systems (client-side soundscape and dynamic weather/light via NWeather).
Improve visual and sound consistency by removing static map effects that contradict the dynamic effects generated by the addon.
This option can be deactivated at any time according to the needs of the map or the administrators.

🧱 Improved
Replaces the variable defining the version by the use of a tag, which automatically indicates the version at download time. This avoids visual inconsistencies between the displayed version and the one actually downloaded. This is an old script (2015), the version had to be changed manually in the file. This could now be forgotten. For example, you have version 2.9 and are visually observing version 2.7.

🧱 Improved
Handles temperature differences when under shelter.

✔️ Patch
Removed snow display inside buildings.
Fixed the glare of the sun appearing through the ground at night with Gmod default post processing.
Fixed a Lua error related to the calendar menu, which was causing problems in 64-bit versions.
Corrected a Lua error that could occur when manually adding custom textures to the client file.

⚡ Optimization
Improved moon rendering at night for more realistic visuals.
Optimized weather calculations to further reduce client-side CPU usage.
Optimization of visual effects (FX), notably by preventing snow from appearing in off-map areas, thus lightening the load on the GPU.

🚀 Added
Support for NWeather Moon Beam processing and real-time customization of its variables.

⚡ Optimization
Optimization of the map's dynamic brightness system.

🚀 New feature
Support for automatic import from the old Job Whitelist system - DarkRP via the export_to_norda_whitelistjob2 command.

🚀 Added
Export command added: export_to_norda_whitelistjob2

This command automatically transfers all whitelist data to my new whitelist job system: WJob - Gmod Whitelisting Job System 2, if also installed.

Once the export is complete (a few seconds), a message will appear in the console indicating that the server will restart in 5 seconds.

✅ Once the migration has been successfully completed, you can safely delete the old addon.

🧱 Improved
A limit indicator has been added to pages being edited, because when the limit is exceeded, the file is not saved. The counter indicates this, and the save button turns red when the maximum limit is exceeded.

✔️ Patch
Patch weapon drop stored in inventory at time of death.

✔️ Patch
The Offline mode, which allows you to make the entity invisible, returns after a reboot. The entity now remains invisible if you have defined it as such.

🚀 Added
Added ESP to the admin button to view the position of all collectable points. Useful for managing and viewing resource distribution in the environment, and for removing them.

✔️ Patch
Fix the moment when the collision reactivates after the collect point respawns, once its removal is triggered during collection.

✔️ Patch
[norda_nweather] ...cl_norda_nweather.lua:2079: Tried to use a NULL entity!
[norda_nweather] ...cl_norda_nweather.lua:1379: Tried to use a NULL entity!

Implementation of a job access expiry system. You can define the duration of access to a job via the whitelist. After this time, the reader will no longer be able to access the job.

DarkUI Compatibility: The interface manages its style independently of Gmod's Derma. DarkUI no longer interferes negatively with UI styling.

Fixed a conflict with some conditions and my Gmod addon - Character System, when you are added to a job whitelist, this was not applied in real time, no need to log out and log back in to work around the problem when this happens.

🧱 Improved
In the job section, job categories can be reduced.
