Description:

Watch the second video to preview the sounds!

What this addon is.

This addon changes how death works in game. Normally you’d just die and respawn at a spawn point, but now instead you’ll be blown away as a ragdoll and be able to get back up where it lands.

Ideal for casual play sessions with friends or maps where spawn is obnoxiously far from where you’re doing things.

Also great if you love funny ragdolls.

Video is from testing it out with a friend.

Features
  • Spawn protection when getting up, with customizable length. (0 to turn it off).
  • Comical and fun deaths for causal or sandbox play sessions.
  • Customizable force multiplier to set how far you want players to be blown back.
  • Playermodels retain color on death!
  • PPM2 support! So pony models work too.
  • Right click when spawning to spawn normally, useful for when you’re trying to return to spawn!
  • Option to keep weapons on death! Works well with my other addon, Weapon Management!
  • Toggleable sounds!

The first iteration of this addon was made using Gmod Blueprints. If you want to give making addons a try and find lua too daunting its a great way to get into it.

P.S. if you like this addon, check out my other ones!

If you want to add your own custom sounds use this format

hook.Add("Initialize", "unique name :)", function() –example filepath "impact/impact1.wav" kd_deathsoundadd("your filepath here") kd_impactsoundadd("your filepath here") end)
