-textmode help? 5 years 6 months ago #1069224

I want to base on multiple alts but not have the game properly running on them, I know that I can play the game through -textmode but I can't find anything related to gmod, only Tf2. I know it's the same principle and commands but obviously when it comes to actually being on the server I need to be able to buy printers etc.

Use commands like "say /buymoneyprinter1" i think etc, you can find them out when you spectate someone buying VIP printers and I think to drop specials is
_inven drop "printer_name"

Give that a try and let me know if it works

i had this issue for years but i found out the fix for this , at least for me
try to launch gmod from the files with sandboxie and not from steam
ofc you need to launch both steam and gmod ( from the files) with sandboxie
it worked for me, i also hope you understand my bed london
That's not the issue he is having? He needs to know what commands are needed to drop printers and such

This is absolutely nothing to do with what you think it is.

It seems like you need to write a custom bat script that sends your commands to a config file that is being repeatedly read by your textmode executable instance: forum.facepunch.com/f/tf2/scks/Send-comm...o-TF2-in-textmode/1/

This example is for TF2 but surely it's the same idea, no?

You could probably create a cfg to do it.

This might work, haven't tried it myself tho
alias buyprinters "say /buymoneyprinter 1; echo Attempted To Buy a Printer"
buyprinters

Then put this in your launch options
-nosound -textmode +exec *name of the cfg you made*.cfg

The problem is the cfg will execute right away before he connects to the server, how can he exec it when he can't type in the console?

Currently the problems I have encountered:
- people who think they know the problem but it's completely unrelated and they don't know what they're talking about.
- can't type in the command prompt.
- can only join the server and after that won't be able to execute commands (nowhere to start them)

I'm not fussed about being able to move them to a base, I can figure that out.

Becuase i'm a retard and typed it out wrong, lemme have another go.
"say /buymoneyprinter 1; echo Attempted To Buy a Printer"
exec *name of this cfg*

This will constantly execute the file and run the command over and over. Delete the cfg once all your printers have spawned.
