Can I ask?

If it updates every 10 minutes does it affects how we go on the server.

Like for example I updated my gmod and the server is still behind the update, does it gonna say that the server has an old engine or w/e

Hopefully he won't push binary updates all the time so it shouldn't change the version so you should still join.

All the servers have been updated as of few minutes ago.

Now if he does change the version every time.... I might have to write an auto update system, however I am avoiding that now because last night one of the updates caused the servers to segfault.

This is why I'm worried... Garry isn't known for testing updates thoroughly and I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with constant updates like this...
