A little something to help loading the content for the server... maybe

[Evan]

Since the server is in its Alpha stage right now, and new stuff is getting added to it all the time, when I came across this I immediately thought it might help the server. It downloads the all of the addons after you have loaded in the server. This way any new additions could be downloaded in game. Maybe this is useful maybe its not, but I want to know what you guys think about it.

I was a admin on a MRP server that had this it improved the load times, but of course while downloading after I got in it froze or lagged a lot.

So its whether you want longer load times or glitchy gameplay for a bit right after you join?

Yep, but the lag is only after first join, after that it will only lag after things are installed. Nomad the life support of the server that I was talking about, made his own script but I'm pretty sure that the one you found works the same way.

Denied. We don't need this. Upon joining, you auto download everything even when we add new content. Also, usually when you download stuff while ON a server, you have to rejoin the server to see the content. Not very newbie friendly vs how we currently have it so everything downloads upon joining.
