Gmod Murder Post-Test
I would like to thank everyone who showed up for the small test that we did, it really meant a lot!
The server didn't crash and burn but it had some massive "Yikes" so to say. Some of the issues I wouldn't even think of checking, like having a bunch of weird symbols in your name to break client side code for most of the addons.
On the other hand it was a complete mess with the workshop addons giving up on server load, which caused a massive problem for the entire client side.
Thankfully some of the stuff I managed to fix on the go and won't have to think about in the future.
Current plan is to address the most serious problems like workshop, re-check the accomplice role for any additional issues, and reduce Power-rounds to 1 per-map and disable any Power-round that involves team based match (or fix the ones that have simple issues).
In conclusion, everything went much better than expected. The server will be password locked for a few days but hopefully by next Friday everything will be done and instead of a test it will just be launched Live!
Will post a follow up announcement when stuff is done and when it actually goes live at a later time. And again, Thank you everyone for participating in this test! :)
