FAQ
Question: How do I install this script?
Answer:To properly install this script -- you may do the following:

• Download a copy of the script and extract it to your computer.
  
  
• Create a new folder within your Garry's Mod server's /addons/ folder named "morpheus"
  (Do not use CAPITAL LETTERS or S P A C E S in the folder name -- Lowercase only)
  
  
• Upload the extracted folders (lua, materials, resource) to the new folder you created in the/addons/directory of your server.
  
  
• Restart your server and join. You should test to ensure things work properly BEFORE customizing the settings.
  
  
• Open the/sh/folder and configure the script how you want.
  

Question: Morpheus won't start when I boot my server?
Answer:Ensure that you have placed the script in the right directory of your Garry's Mod server. It is highly recommended that when you create a new folder for your new script, that you DO NOT use spaces or special characters in the folder name. Linux and Windows based servers handle oddly named folders differently. Windows is OK with caps and spaces in the folder names, whereas Linux will completely skip loading an addon if the folder has improper characters within the name.
Question: How do I customize this script?
Answer:You can access the various config files by going into your server file structure and opening/lua/morpheus/sh/configs
Question: Can I disable the Escape Screen feature?
Answer:Yes -- within the configuration file (usually located in the/lua/morpheus/sh/configsfolder), you will find settings related to the Escape Screen which can be adjusted, including the ability to completely disable it.
Question: Will you customize the script for me?
Answer:No -- I only do feature requests that I can add into the official script itself within an update. I do not help or assist with special requests that are to be on your server only. It is recommended that you contact a 3rd party developer on the Gmodstore Jobs section.
