SandboxPlus, an S&box Game

Its built on top of Sandbox Classic (which itself is a rewrite of Facepunch's Sandbox for the Scene system), with additions to make it more extendable (adding events, publicizing UI globals, etc), while staying unopinionated/light. The goal is "Gmod 2", replicating the functionality found in Gmod's Sandbox gamemode (with improvements).

For the old version using the Entity system, see 2023-entity-system branch.

Still very WIP as of the Scene system, much of the below functionality is still being copied over

Improvements over Facepunch/sandbox:

Gameplay

• It exists (since Facepunch deleted theirs)
• Constraint tool: an omni-tool with all your classic Gmod constraints (weld/axis/rope/elastic/slider/ballsocket)
• Duplicator tool
• Material tool
• Toolgun model (wip)
• Undo/Redo System
• DynShapes spawnmenu: like PHX, but dynamic, fully customizable sizes using procedural meshes. Rectangles, cylinders, spheres, gears!
• UI tool panels, including ModelSelector with extendable .spawnlist's

Extensiblility

• IStopUsing entity interface
• Many new events (aiming to reproduce many of Gmod 1's), including "entity.spawned" event, "undo.add" event

Addons for SandboxPlus
