Prop core
The prop core functionality is used generally for manipulating props using an E2 script within Garry's mod environment. Manipulalation type can be anything like creating, deleting, teleporting, angling, gravity, inertia, buoyancy and much more
Convar sbox_E2_PropCore controls enable/disable of the extension.
2 : Players can affect their own props
1 : Only admins can ise the extensoion
0 : The extension is disabled
Convar sbox_E2_maxProps Controls the maximum amount of props spawned via E2 set this to -1 to disable the limit.
Convar sbox_E2_maxPropsPerSecond Controls the maximum amount of propes spawned for one second. Dont set this too high !
