📒 Description of "NRestrict: Advanced and Optimized Zone-Based Access Restriction for GMod"

NRestrict is a zone-based access restriction system for Garry's Mod, designed for demanding and modular environments. Built on a smart client/server architecture, it allows precise control over who can enter a zone based on multiple criteria: job, job group, role, level, rank, category, etc. all without placing entities in-game or relying on a gamemode.

Designed for RP servers DarkRP, Helix, or Sandbox NRestrict acts like a logical firewall: zones can be configured to allow or deny certain entities in real-time, with a clear user notification on the HUD when access is automatically denied.

When a player enters a zone, the system dynamically analyzes their profile (job, role, level) and displays a HUD notification if access is denied, clearly indicating the reason: insufficient level, unauthorized job, etc. All this works without ongoing network sync or global loops, ensuring minimal system impact.

Where staff typically must intervene manually to block access to sensitive areas (VIP district, faction zone, command room, etc.), NRestrict serves as an automated, reliable replacement. Comparable to tools like Area Restrictor 2, it offers a more modular, optimized, and fully customizable approach.

In the absence of moderators, or within demanding RP settings, NRestrict maintains order, immersion, and access hierarchy without human intervention. Whether restricting access to police, medics, armed factions, or specific levels, the system acts automatically and transparently to users without server overhead.

Is NRestrict the sequel to Gmod Area Restrictor?
Yes, NRestrict is the direct evolution of Gmod Area Restrictor, an addon I created over 10 years ago.
In a way, it's "Area Restrictor 2", redesigned from the ground up to meet the needs of today's GMod servers.

🧠 Fun fact: a tenth of a century (yes, 10 years) passed between my two addon generations.
Meanwhile, some folks sell you a "remaster" just 4 months after their first draft... Goes to show: between remaking quickly and remaking properly, there's a decade's difference. 😉
