Garrys-Mod-Family-Sharing

Prevent players bypassing existing bans on Garrys Mod Servers.

This script will prevent players bypassing current / existing bans using Steam's built in family sharing feature.

This script will also prevent players bypassing current / existing bans by buying a new Garry's Mod. (Yes it can detect that too.) via the ban tracker feature.

This will also "if enabled." add banning users by IP address to the default ULX !ban "ulx ban" and !banid "ulx banid" command.
