<function name="AddWorkshop" parent="resource" type="libraryfunc">⤶ <description>⤶ Adds a workshop addon for the client to download before entering the server.⤶ ⤶ Having the raw files from a workshop item does not count as having already downloaded it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;⤶ So players who previously downloaded a map through Fast Download will have to re-download it if you use the workshop.⤶ ⤶ You should try to only add addons that have custom content ( models, sounds, etc ).⤶ ⤶ Gamemodes that are [workshop enabled](/gmod/Gamemode_Creation#Gamemode_Text_File) are automatically added to this list - so there's no need to add them.⤶ ⤶ ⤶ The server's current map is also automatically added, if it is loaded from a workshop addon.⤶ ⤶ <warning>This will not "install" the addon on your server, see <page>Workshop for Dedicated Servers</page> for installing Steam Workshop addons onto your servers</warning>⤶ </description>⤶ <realm>Server</realm>⤶ <file_name>src/garrysmod/Library/gl_resource.cpp</file_name>⤶ <file_line>107</file_line>⤶ <args>⤶ <arg name="workshopid" type="string">The workshop id of the file.
