gmod: prop binds

yo, gonna teach you how to spawn props from pressing a key on your keyboard or a button on your mouse


open the spawn menu and pick a prop you desire to spawn.

right click on it, copy it to keyboard the prop name and then open up console. in console type

bind " " "gm_spawn (paste the prop name here)"

so, a completed example would look like

bind X "gm_spawn models/hunter/blocks/cube4x4x4.mdl"

make sure to exactly copy it like that, do not leave out the quotes. hope this helped

what is an E2

[gigguh]

you would need to create an E2 that changes the material of a prop you spawn.

[reλper]

is there a way to gm_spawn the prop with a color picked for it or a material

[gigguh]

@Spectator

yeah, you can bind it twice. you need to add a ";" after the first statement.

bind "x" "gm_spawn models/hunter/blocks/cube4x4x4.mdl";"gm_spawn prop"

[szabolcs]

can you not spawn npcs like this? i've put

bind X "gm_spawn npc_turret_floor"

and it doesn't spawn anything

[Arsenic]

can you bind 2 items?

[gigguh]

open console and type, "unbind x" replace x with whatever key you set the bind

[axakiono]

how do i reset the bind

[AlligatorScrublord]

i managed to get it to work, here's a barrel bind for L key.
bind "l" "gm_spawn models/nseven/oildrum001.mdl"
