Documenting my contributions to nZombies Rezzurrection after they removed my attribution over a political disagreement.

I’m Ethorbit, creator of nZombies Chronicles (nZC) and a major contributor to nZombies Rezzurrection.

After a political disagreement in the Rezzurrection Discord, Rezzurrection removed my name from all of the code I wrote, which they still use in full.

List of parts of the game I worked on

  • Anti-Cheat
  • Fixed traps
  • Bigger Settings menu
  • More Settings

GLua guide on how to support the nZombies gamemode correctly

This is a Garry's Mod lua guide for addon authors on how to add support for nZombies gamemodes (such as the new nZombies Chronicles). It's very easy, but instead of a single comparison, you support several matches

1. Support any game that starts with nzombies:

This is the broadest and most future-proof method. It matches any gamemode whose name starts with "nzombies" including variants that don't exist yet.

local is_nzombies = string.StartsWith(string.lower(engine.ActiveGamemode()), "nzombies")
if is_nzombies then
 -- your special nzombies stuff

Explaining how game limitations make nZombies Singleplayer unplayable

Reasons not to play nZombies in Singleplayer

Due to many limitations in Garry's Mod, nZombies is unplayable in Singleplayer; it should only be used for making configs.

1. Lag

Garry's Mod is single-threaded, which means no matter how many cores your CPU has, it will only use one. There are two realms:

  • Client

Plays the game, renders things
