Tank Track Tool

Beskrivning
With tanks being such a popular thing to build in gmod, it is sad indeed to know that realistic tank tracks are nearly impossible. This tool aims to, mostly, solve that issue. Please post pictures so I can add them to the images!

Concept:
- Wheels are defined
- A spline is generated around these wheels
- Models are rendered around this spline
- An animated scrolling texture is dynamically scaled to fit these models
- Tank tracks!

Features:
- Easy to use; spawn, select wheels, edit with context menu, and go!
- A lot of options so far, and probably more in the future.
- 100% Clientside (apart from the networked editable options); no more laggy e2 tracks, or, god forbid, physical ones!

Credits:
- MrWhite; textures
- DatAmazingCheese; textures
- Metamist; icon
- Waxx; server testing
- Thebutheads; ideas
- Karbine; ideas

For best results, use with SProps!

Fuck copied my wrong notes. My retardation sorry.

Further testing.
Suspension springs with the SPROPS texture, thinking maybe the chrome eats too much performance.

Same FPS outcome like before. Feels maybe 1 or 3 fps cheaper

Just to see what happens.
Tested tank tracks cost. Its like -5 FPS per tank track pair.

8 Tanks can be on the server with no issue only one user reports low FPS but he has an ancient PC something like GT 210 GPU but its a detractor.

So if you change the material, is the drop that severe?

Did some more testing.

Tested with spawning 20 springs.
(Controler, Frozen Base prop, Free floating prop roped to base prop)

Spawned by 2 users 10 per users max SENTs (per user server setting, that I can't change atm)

We both have decent GPUs ~RTX2060 and GTX 1650 we both got hit but our FPS plateaued at ~80 then hiccups between 140 and 80 in a 1.5 second cycle. staying at the min and the max for ~ 5 FPS

Individual springs and pistons from the menu sent_suspension_shock

Yeah that makes more sense. I'm surprised the drop is that harsh so there may be something bad going on. Are you talking about the suspension parts on the tank tracks or the individual springs/pistons from the entity menu?
