Description
Print some fake money with your own skill.

//

In a world where printers are overpowered and economies are broken, this addon flies in to maybe have some effect on that.

STCounterfeit is a money-printing system with a bit extra. Buy an industrial printer, a battery, an ink cartridge, and a box of paper, and your printing operation is ready to go. The printer will continue to produce counterfeit money until any of the three supplies run out. At this time, you can either take the money that has been produced, or reload the printer to make more. Whenever you take the money, you get a percentage of the money equal to your skill level.

Your skill level starts at a (configurable) 25%, and increases by 0%, 1%, or 2% whenever someone takes the money out of a print job you started. This skill level persists among sessions, meaning you won't lose your skill through disconnects.

Features and Contents
Functionality in sandbox.
Functionality in DarkRP (setup required).
Simple to configure, simple to use.
Config options for parts of the addon.
No additional content required.

Configurable settings include:
How much skill each new player starts with.
How much money the printers produce every second.
In order to modify these config values, go to garrysmod/data/sweptthrone_addons/stcounterfeit.txt. Do not add or remove any spaces when modifying values.

I made this because printers are usually game-breakingly overpowered, but other addons that try to remedy this are usually overly complicated and confusing.

TBH seems like an even worse solution. This will make veteran players even more powerful. Good try though, but at least regular printers serve everyone equally. Maybe if there was a way to track both counterfeit, passable, and real money it might change things, along with a money checker or something.

start the game as a listen server with at least 2 players instead of singleplayer.

the player doesn't have a steamid if the server is singleplayer, and that's not really something that's at the top of my priorities to work around.
