To disable AI in Garry’s Mod (GMod), you can utilize the game’s console commands to achieve this. Whether you want to have greater control over the gameplay or create specific scenarios, disabling AI can be a useful tool in customizing your gaming experience.
To begin, you’ll need to open the console in GMod by pressing the “~” key on your keyboard. Once the console is open, you can enter the following commands to disable AI:
1. “ai_disable” – This command completely disables all AI in the game, including NPCs, monsters, and any other non-player characters. By entering this command, you can effectively remove all AI from the game environment, allowing you to focus on other aspects of gameplay without any AI interference.
2. “npc_disable” – This command specifically targets non-player characters and disables their AI behavior. While this command only affects NPCs and not other AI entities, it can be useful if you want to retain other types of AI in the game while removing NPCs specifically.
3. “ai_ignoreplayers 1” – This command instructs AI entities to ignore players, effectively turning off their ability to engage with or interact with human players. This can be useful for creating specific gameplay scenarios where you want to explore the game world without any AI interference.
It’s important to note that these commands are intended for single-player or local server use. If you’re playing on a multiplayer server, you may need to have the necessary admin permissions to modify the game settings.
By using these console commands, you can effectively disable AI in GMod and tailor the gameplay experience to your preferences. Whether you’re focusing on building and creating in the game environment or setting up specific scenarios for gameplay, the ability to disable AI gives you greater control over your GMod experience.
