    [SEE BELOW FOR REQUIRED MODS]

    WARNING: THIS MAP IS EXTREMELY TAXING ON PC'S IF USING THE DYNAMIC VERSION. USE STATIC, EMPTY, or DYNAMIC NO MODS IF YOU CAN'T RUN THE REGULAR DYNAMIC VERSION.

    It's here! My fully destructible map has arrived, and it's a free release! This map is inspired by the various Garry's Mod tornado survival maps.

    For this map, there are four versions as of now (will add more if there's interest). A fully dynamic version, which is slightly buggy, and requires the use of certain mods. Then, there is a version that requires NO mods and is fully static. Then there is a version where it is empty, and you can create your own scene with props. Then, finally there is the Dynamic Version, which uses no mods and has a lot less dynamic objects.

    I followed all of the instructions for the downloads, but the radial menu will not open when I'm in this particular map. Is there a known fix for this?

    Was this happening with the Dynamic Version, or any of the other versions?

    You have to follow the tornado AI tutorial in the spawn room. You have to activate the tornado on a vehicle of your choice and then set AI to Random using the AI UI app, not the radial menu AI.

    So I'm still confused, forgive me.

    I manually drive into one of the colored teleporters then set AI to random, and the car just drives around apparently.
    I set AI to random before and the car drives into one of the teleporters by itself and then drives around.

    Do I need to spawn multiple cars or something, one for the epicenter of the tornado and one for my own use?

    It only happens on the dynamic version. Not sure what the problem is, since I downloaded all the mods your first post says to.

    I tried again and got this lua error, not sure if this is helpful or not.

    Yes, you need to spawn in a "tornado vehicle" and set its AI to random (apparently with the UI app) and enable a tornado on it (using the radial menu). Then you can spawn in other vehicles if you want. I think you can set up multiple tornado vehicles if you want.

    Yeah I have a whole billboard dedicated to this lol, can't personally seem to figure it out. It definitely has to do with the mods I am using. Just use Static version, or go with Empty and spawn the same mods up and it shouldn't break.

    This is working flawlessly for us in our BEAMMP server by placing the tornado folder in the resources/server folder.

    one question: with only two players connected to a beammp server, is it possible to have the tornado move randomly (random AI) without having a 3rd person connected to be the "tornado ai vehicle"?

    "spawn new" doesn't work, unless there's a workaround I'm not familiar with.

    Small question: Does the tornado spawn on it's own or do I need to spawn it manually?
