This page uses steam formatting. I prefer markdawn though.

Description

This script can give you the ability to connect prop-segmented track pieces fast. It is optimized and brings the track building time consuming to a minimum. It uses pre-defined active points to snap the segments the best way there is in Garry's Mod

Ability to list up the most used pieces on the server ( E + Right )
Ability to search among the most server popular pieces by Lua patterns[www.lua.org]
Ability to export server and client database as a file
Tool-tips for every button are available and can be translated easily

I am currenly updating the internal data handling and library optimzations. This must not affect how you use the tool. For the spanish translation the only thing that needs to be done is to translate the properties file. Do you volunteer to do that ?
