When playing in Sandbox, organizing team-based events is a pain. Solve that problem with SBTM, a convenient way to setup spawns and teams!

Open the menu, right click a player's name, choose their team, and presto! You can let players choose their own team, or randomly assign them. Spruce up your gaming sessions today!

  • Use the custom derma UI to easily see who's in which team and set teams quickly
  • Property menu allows you to change the team of anyone you see
  • Spawnpoints (in Fun + Games tab) to setup any situation
  • Shuffle and auto-assign buttons to easily randomize team setups
  • Options menu for tweaking your experience to your liking
  • Assign teams to NPCs and have them fight along or against you

Can you add more than 4 teams? I have decided to keep it static for the sake of simplicity.

Where is the menu? Hold the Context key (C). It's in the top left, same place as the playermodel selector.

Where is the options page? Utilities -> Admin -> Sandbox Team Manager

Does it work in singleplayer? But why?

JMod Support? Will happen in the next JMod update.

Can I set NPCs with different models to have different teams? Doing it that way would be much more performance intensive (setting relationships) and complicated. I may give it a reconsideration but it is unlikely.

I don't see the menu or the spawnpoint! Most likely you are in singleplayer. Start a listen server by clicking the green button on the top right, then selecting "X Players" instead of "Single Player".

Is this compatible with X? SBTM uses GMod's inbuilt teams feature. If the addon in question supports teams and doesn't have an exception for sandbox, it will likely work.

I want to report a bug! Please use the GitHub issues page.

Yo is that a ROBLOX spawn - I will find you and make you commit oof.mp3
