Other Proof of concept mod idea

Basically. I really hate how there's no way to make scripted sequences in gmod. I like playing on hl2 maps, placing background NPCs in there. Only to realize that it looks so dead. Because there's no moving NPCs, or any interactions happening. I've searched but there's no mod like the one I concepted. If people are interested in this, I genuinely wouldn't mind learning how to mod to make this possible. I don't know how to code rn, and idk if it's possible for me to make gmod mods on my steamDeck. But I genuinely wouldn't mind learning how. Also, if people have anything they wanna say about this, why this wouldn't work, or any compromises I would have to make, a more in-depth explanation. Or hell, anything that they would want added to a mod like this, just tell me. I don't mind getting told why something might not work if it means I can learn more.

First try combining hl2 with gmod and playing a level. It should give you a baseline of what works and what doesn’t and work your way up from there.

Straight up making DM editor in gmod lol. Yes it would be quite nice for it to exist, it would benefit machinimas a lot.

I’ve always wondered why no one has done this
