    Default Grabber Edit?

    I think that the grabber should be edited to have the ability to grab players & NPC's (checkbox), with applicable prop protection. I like this, as we could use these to grab players for teleports, instead of using seats, which are limited on most servers.
    They were here. Here: that's where they were. And they are watching you at this very second, poised to attack.

    Who are they?
    Where are they?
    How many ninja stars do they have pointed at me?

    Not sure how possible that is. I always have had a hard time picking up NPCs with the phys gun. Their simply not designed to be moved. As for players I really don't know.

    Personally I do not use npc's that much and the only person I would think should be able to pickup players is admins to stick them in a anti no-clip zone.

    i dont know about npc's but grabbers capable of picking up players (with prop protection buddies checked) would be a huge improvement. although i dont see much use for it other than contraptions such as an automated people mover. heh if this happens im totally making a museum and carry visitors through it on a track.

    Player's are not made to be moved like that. Ask an admin to pick you up with his physgun. If you don't know what I mean.

    Instead use that teleport function which I've seen on here.
    That makes a lot more sense to teleport people.
    My signature has a point.

    What teleport function? That's all I really want, is an ability to teleport w/o a vehicle, which run out fast. Is it the prop-core's pos function?

    No, setpos dosn't work on players. You need E:tele(), which i'm 73.3% sure I have on my server.

    Make grabbed people go into noclip mode. Then you can move them easily.

    I am admin on a server and moving people not in noclip is a pain in the feet (for the grabbed one).
    While moving noclipped people works as nice as moving a prop with auto-freeze.
