Workshop Mounter

Description
aka WSMount

Experimental. Feel free to report any bugs.
Workshop Mounter allows downloading and mounting workshop content in-game, instead of the loading screen. Admins can define what workshop addons should use Workshop Mounter through a handy GUI.

Usage
If you're an admin, type `wsmount_settings` in console, and select what addons players should automatically download and mount.

Okay that was indeed in my end, all my gmod files were dying of dementia and were all deleted... How did it end up like this.

I needed indeed to download all the files too to make them up list on the downloader.

NOW after I made work my smooth worm brain I was able to make it work flawlessly. Thank you, and sorry for the big messages.

> Failed to download addon "..."

It's an issue on your end, Steam failed to download the workshop addons for some reason. Unfortunately gmod doesn't provide us with an error reason, so i can't even tell you why. Works for me on one of the addons though

> mount also a WHOLE collection?

No. The way we do it for single addons is i take the addon's ID from the URL when you go to the page. For collections it's trickier; i'd need to execute javascript... and gmod doesn't let us do that on Steam's pages so devs don't steal people's steam credentials and shit.

There *IS* a way to do it with an external service (i.e. take the collection ID, feed it to something that would give us a list of addons), but it's a pain in the ass IMO and wouldn't work for private/unlisted/etc. collections.

If it's for a server, you can use the "Caught addons" thingy (the document icon); if the server was already having the player download the addons [wiki.facepunch.com], it'll show up there and you'll be able to add it

Could you add an option to mount also a WHOLE collection?

Tis great but doesn't work with the SCB Chatbox as TSO says :(
Any pointers skibidi to get it working with it? I've tried excluding it but it's just not playing ball.
Any ideas? Cheers

I'd see why it breaks but it's a paid addon, so rip

Ooooo perfect okay thank you, it broke SCb ChatBox that was all, but I’ll clear the data file and reload it and not add it to the list thanks for the help!

It doesn't stop regular workshop downloading (ie during the loading screen), unless you add it to the list

The settings menu (wsmount_settings console command) will contain `caught addons`, which are addons that download like usual; only by adding those to the WSM list (via the + button) will they get downloaded through WSM
