Hammer++/GMod FGD?

[SnabbSpelare]

Hello, I am very intrested into learning how to make a custom FGD as in Hammer++ there's terrible default values that make no sense. And I would like to cleanup. And even expand some values and possibly help make most settings default for all my maps. In Hammer++ if you right click it will reset to the default. And is this was FGD does or is this more internal? Another bug in Hammer++ is that a door have fade/end dist but its not named quite the same as props fade/end dist.

the default values come from the FGD, but FGD's do a lot more than that too.

Thanks for your response!

But... Can I or not add new or edit existing entities default values and add new entities that were missing? Just asking so I can put more time into this before I learn its useless or worth it.

you can change default values however you like. as for the rest of that, it depends on what exactly you're hoping to achieve.

can you create completely new features with just FGD code? no. FGDs only tell hammer what exists, they don't control any actual entities.

can you make the FGDs more closely match what features of entities/entities themselves actually exist? (AKA what the FGDs in this repo do) Yes.
