Can you use these cheats in multiplayer?
On a server, sv_cheats is all or nothing. XGamingServer says it applies to every connected player, so it suits a private server among friends rather than a public one, and it suggests an admin mod such as ULX if you want only admins to fly. Admins can also turn it on over RCON with rcon sv_cheats 1. XGamingServer: How to enable cheats on your Garry's Mod server
Compatibility notes
Which releases these codes apply to, and where one behaves differently. Each note links to the source that documents it.
- Servers XGamingServer says sv_cheats is server-wide, not per player: once it is 1, every connected player can noclip, spawn weapons and use god mode. Setting it back to 0 drops anyone who is in noclip. XGamingServer: How to enable cheats on your Garry's Mod server
- Map changes and restarts XGamingServer says a value typed in the console goes back to the config value after a map change or restart. Only a line in garrysmod/cfg/server.cfg keeps it on. XGamingServer: How to enable cheats on your Garry's Mod server
- Checking that cheats are on Physgun says typing sv_cheats on its own shows the current value, and that impulse 101 is a quick test once it reads 1. Physgun: How to enable cheats on your Garry's Mod server
- Cleanup The Facepunch wiki says gmod_cleanup is the command that lets a player clean up their own props. Garry's Mod Wiki (Facepunch): cleanup.CC_Cleanup
