I really need help with the creation of the Server.cfg file on my garrysmod server
I've had a few tries getting the server to work, but after a few days, it always started crashing randomly (Or by spawning a jeep[Which should be fixed now])
but i found out that i you want a fully functional working gmod server, it's a good idea to install some third party content, (or at least tf2) to get some source engine libaries needed
but the topic of this thread is that i would like to make a server.cfg that works, without any problems,
i've just reinstalled the server completely, and installed almost all third party content,
i have not yet started the server even once,
i wan't to be completely sur that everything is set up as it should be
i've been searching around google and facepunch, but i only found posts from around 2005-2008, and i know there's some changes in the server configuration commands,
what i am looking for, is newly made server configuration, so i can see exactly how you make them,
and also any tips on how to avoid future problems, crashing ect. would be nice
regards

Here are some of the settings I used in my server.cfg :
Setting your server name :
[code]
hostname "My new server"
[/code]
Setting the rcon password (optional, lets you use remote console) :
[code]
rcon_password "s3cr3t"
[/code]
Setting the tags (optional, they show in the "tags" column in the server browser) :
[code]
sv_tags "PHX3, Wiremod"
[/code]
Setting download related things (optional, only if you have custom content, NOT TF2 content or something) :
[code]
sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1
sv_downloadurl "http://mysite.com/fastdl/garrysmod"
[/code]
Setting network rates :
[code]
sv_maxrate 1048576
sv_minrate 16384
sv_maxupdaterate 100
sv_minupdaterate 10
net_maxfilesize 64
[/code]
Prevent 12 year olds endless squeaking (optional, note that it disable voice chat for everyone) :
[code]
sv_voiceenable 0
[/code]
Players can fly :
[code]
sbox_noclip 1
[/code]
Players can die :
[code]
sbox_godmode 0
[/code]
Players can't hurt other players :
[code]
sbox_plpldamage 1
[/code]
Players can't mess with the map's stuff :
[code]
physgun_limited 1
[/code]
Various sandbox limits :
[code]
sbox_maxprops 100
sbox_maxragdolls 0
sbox_maxvehicles 4
sbox_maxeffects 5
sbox_maxballoons 5
sbox_maxnpcs 0
sbox_maxdynamite 0
sbox_maxlamps 4
sbox_maxlights 6
sbox_maxwheels 16
sbox_maxthrusters 10
sbox_maxhoverballs 0
sbox_maxbuttons 64
sbox_maxemitters 5
sbox_maxspawners 5
sbox_maxturrets 0
[/code]
Players won't be hurt that much if they fall :
[code]
mp_falldamage 0
[/code]
Players can't use flashlight (I use it on maps like gm_flatgrass2008) :
[code]
mp_flashlight 0
[/code]
Logs what happens on disk :
[code]
log on
[/code]
Various wiremod limits :
[code]
sbox_maxwire_gates 256
sbox_maxwire_turrets 0
sbox_maxwire_explosive 0
sbox_maxwire_simple_explosive 0
sbox_maxwire_indicators 64
sbox_maxwire_pixels 64
[/code]
Players don't have weapons (they still have physgun, toolgun and camera) :
[code]
sbox_weapons 0
[/code]
Anyway, unless you messed it really hard, a bad server.cfg should not be able to crash a server.
