The addon covers a wide range of damage types, including DMG_SLASH, DMG_CLUB, and DMG_GENERIC, ensuring that most standard melee attacks can be parried. This makes it an excellent addition for roleplay servers, arena gamemodes, or any scenario where hand-to-hand combat plays a significant role. By integrating directly into the existing weapon framework, it feels like a natural extension of the game’s mechanics rather than a cumbersome overlay.

Intuitive Controls and Audio Feedback

Using the block mechanic is straightforward: just hold MOUSE2 on any equipped weapon to raise your guard. When active, incoming melee damage is nullified, allowing you to wait for the perfect moment to counter-attack. To enhance the immersion, the addon includes satisfying sound effects that trigger upon successfully blocking an hit. These audio cues provide immediate feedback, helping players understand when their defense is active and effective. For those who prefer a quieter experience or are using custom sound packs, these effects can be easily disabled through the settings.

Configuration and Server Settings

Flexibility is key to this addon’s design. Server administrators and single-player users can fine-tune the blocking mechanics to suit their preferred balance. Two primary console variables allow for precise control: sv_block_duration determines how long a block remains active after pressing the button, while sv_block_cooldown sets the delay before another block can be initiated. Adjusting these values enables you to create anything from a fast-paced, reflex-heavy combat style to a more methodical and defensive gameplay loop. This level of customization ensures that the mod can adapt to various server rules and community preferences without requiring code edits.

Installation and Compatibility

Installing the Simple Melee Block System is hassle-free. Subscribe via the Steam Workshop for automatic updates or place the files manually into your garrysmod/addons folder. The addon is designed to be lightweight and compatible with most other modifications, including custom weapons and NPC packs. Since it relies on standard input methods and damage hooks, it rarely conflicts with other systems. This makes it a safe and reliable choice for enhancing combat dynamics in any Garry's Mod environment.
