vFire - Dynamic Fire for Garry's Mod

Apologies for the month late fix. Thank you for bringing the issue to my attention in the comments/discussions, and thank you Ickycoolboy for making a fix available.
vFire development is dormant. Still, efforts will be made to keep it working as Garry's Mod is updated.





- Fires are spawned by igniting props and explosions
- Fires of different sizes, automatic growth and spread based on what is being burnt
- Fires grow bigger if fed with any flamable object: wood, rubber, cardboard, plastic, etc.
- Fires attach to any surface or character
- Light and glow effects
- NPCs respond to being burnt by running around screaming in pain
- Fires are affected by wind depending on their environment
- Physical fire balls
- Custom scorch decals of different sizes
- Tickrate throttling and spacial clustering for optimization purposes

vFire comes with its very own flamethrower, available at: https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1525572545 and a Dragon Breath shotgun available at: https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1643778026

Fires are best extinguished with: https://steamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=104607228 - any other extinguisher SWEP will also extinguish fires - but immediately.


Want to create a new SWEP or Tool? vFire can be easily integrated by developers into any server or addon using a simple interface - please see the 'vFire Interface for Developers' document here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GbSrWMqJYI0f4pP0pYBiG2TsKUCXifQLjCqC0qHA9a0/edit?usp=sharing

If you're experiencing crashes, any sort of errors, or invisible fires, please temporarily disable all of your addons using the Addons > Disable All button, re-enable vFire, and see if the problem persists. If the problem persists, please open a discussion describing the problem (and steps to reproduce) in detail. If the problem is gone, then other addons are in conflict with vFire; the problem is outside vFire's scope.

vFire utilizes a handful of optimization techinques including spacial clustering, prioritization based server and client tickrate throttling, automatic LOD transitions, and more to maximize performance - clients are even more worry free if they set gmod_mcore_test to 1.
In case that's not enough, you can always use both the provided client and server ConVars to effectively minimize loads, and set vFire to match your requirements. Server owners are recommended to use the vfire_decay_rate setting to make fires die faster to decrease load accumulation.
