Advanced TRATools
A collection of tools to fine-tune the AI of HL2 NPCs and others.
It also has tools to create effects and help with mission design.
All tools support save games (do not save your games with NPCs)
Some tools in this pack require my other addons "NPC Variants", "Better Explosions Pack" and "War Machines NPCs" to work properly
all the code is my own, some resources are from third parties, old things that I had saved a long time ago, so I couldn’t get the names of the authors to give them credit.
Please, if any author notices that their resources are included here, write me to give them the proper credit.

* Automatic Namer

Do you want to have a similar or more difficulty in gmod as you had in HL2, but are you too lazy to configure everything yourself? Here is a small file (Highly Improved) with all likely the proper HL2 settings like NPC HP, Weapons Damage, Explosions Damage, NPC’s Damage, etc… which will give your NPC’s a higher difficulty to balance fights between them!
Extract rar archive into your garrysmod folder (NOT IN ADDONS FOLDER)
Remember that you can always edit it as you wish if any of the values are not what you want.
