Requires the x86-64 Chromium branch. This means you and your players need to be playing on this branch to use this product. It can be opted into as a beta in your Garry's Mod properties.

In short

Reconnect! innovates in terms of handling server crashes on the player's end, letting you chat with other players while waiting for the server to restart. They can also decide to disconnect, or switch to any other server of yours.

How does the chatbox work?


It's an HTML panel which goes to a chat room hosted by me. It's automatically provided to you after the add-on gets downloaded.

You don't need to setup anything for it to work, and it's seamless!


I made sure to make every single option editable with as little effort as possible, while keeping it powerful and simple to understand, with lots of clarification and helpful comments.

If you have any issue understanding how to configure the add-on, please don't be afraid to shoot me a support ticket.

Installation

Same as any basic add-on!

1. Unzip the add-on into your server's add-ons directory.

2. Make sure the "crashmenu" directory is in there before freaking out about it not working!

3. Change the config in "lua/crashmenu/sh_config.lua" to your liking

4. ???

5. Profit! Leave a review!

Brilliant
It just works, very easy to configure too. Keeping players on your server during outages is extremely valuable.

Great addon and Quick support!
The addon is great, looks great, and is easy to configure. For those stating that support has been slow, click on "Help & Support" underneath the addon's banner and it'll give you the creator's discord. They were very quick to respond to my issue on there!

Functional Addon
Very good at what it does, unlike others it performs polling to check when the server is back online so its pretty accurate. I'm knocking 2 stars off purely due to the hassle I had to go through to get an issue fixed as there was no response to support tickets(before the addon was marked as unsupported), store admins were unable to contact the creator and I only got a response once a negative review was left on the addon. Overall a great addon which serves its stated purpose but the support needs to be improved.

Fix for the crash screen chatbox

by Bell

For the add-on to work as advertised, you'll need to update to the latest version.
