A prop placement system that allows players to place persistent, client-only props using inventory items. Features include preview placement with gizmos, owner-only removal, and efficient streaming based on player distance.
This script provides prop placement with persistent storage, client-side streaming for performance, and integration with popular placement gizmos.

​
Features

Persistent props

Props are saved to MySQL and automatically restored on resource start, so placements persist across server restarts.

Client-side streaming

Non-networked entities spawn and despawn per player within a configurable radius for optimal performance.

Owner-only removal

Toggleable system where only prop owners can remove their placements and receive the item back.

Placement limits

Configurable limits per item and a global maximum per player to prevent abuse and maintain server performance.

Advanced placement UX

Uses gs_gizmo for intuitive placement or falls back to a translucent ghost preview with rotation controls.

Framework integration

Compatible with VORP Core and RSG Core frameworks with modular framework bridge support.

​
