Setting the gamemode of your Garry's Mod server is without issue with our helpful panel. If you want to use a custom gamemode, like PropHunt or TTT, you'll want to install it before making any changes.

Note: Be sure that your Garry's Mod server is fully stopped before making any configuration changes or setting updates!

Setting the Gamemode

  1. Navigate to your Nodecraft dashboard.

  2. Click the Panel button for your Garry's Mod server.

  3. Stop your server.

  4. Expand the Game Settings tab, then click on Garry's Mod Game Settings.

  5. Open your Sandbox tab.

  6. Navigate to the Server Gamemode setting. Put your desired server password into this box.

  7. Click Submit at the bottom of the page.

  8. Start your server.
