Last month we added addons, which you could choose before creating a server and would load with the server. This month we added runtime addons, which can be downloaded and spawned while the server is running. Code, models, materials, sounds and particles etc are all downloaded and loaded at runtime.

We had something like this in GMod a while back, it was called CloudBox. That was shortly before Workshop was invented I think, and we switched to that and lost this awesome functionality. One of my favourite things ever in gaming was jumping in game and spawning things that people have made and try to work out what they do.

There's a bit of work to do around this feature. Like what addons are people allowed to spawn on your server? Obviously not any addon - or they'd makes them an admin and spawn that. So it's gonna have to be something like a whitelist from us of "safe" addons, but server admins can spawn whatever they want. We'll figure that shit out.
