How to change the constraint limit in GMod
Type sbox_maxconstraints 500 in the server console to cap each player at 500 welds, axes, ball sockets and no-collides; -1 removes the cap.
sbox_maxconstraints
Sets the maximum number of constraints each player can have spawned at once on a Sandbox server.
sbox_maxconstraints <count> Examples
sbox_maxconstraints 500 Stops players from building huge welded contraptions.
sbox_maxconstraints -1 No limit. Only sensible on small private servers.
Arguments
countRequired- Maximum constraints per player.
What it does
Caps how many constraints a single player can own at the same time. When a player reaches the cap, Sandbox shows a limit message and refuses to spawn more until they remove some. Counts non-rope constraints such as welds, axes, ball sockets and no-collides. Large constraint systems are a common cause of physics lag.
The game's own description: Maximum non rope-based constraints a single player can create
Good to know
- A negative value such as -1 removes the limit, and 0 blocks spawning entirely.
- Limits are not applied in single player.
- The limit counts per player, so the server total can be this value times the player count.
Run it on your server
On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to garrysmod/cfg/server.cfg. New to this? Start a GMod server first.
