What Exactly Are GMOD Nextbots?

A “Nextbot” in Garry’s Mod is a special type of AI entity known for its simple but terrifyingly effective pursuit behavior. Unlike complex NPCs, a Nextbot is often just a 2D image or GIF that relentlessly chases players through the map, often accompanied by loud, distorted audio. They get their name from Valve’s “NextBot” navigation system, which allows them to efficiently navigate complex environments, making them incredibly difficult to escape. This simple formula has made GMOD Nextbot chases the subject of countless viral horror and comedy videos.

Tips for Surviving a Nextbot Chase

Facing a high-speed Nextbot can be daunting. Here are a few survival tips to increase your chances:

  • Never Stop Moving: The number one rule. A stationary target is an easy target. Always be on the run.
  • Know Your Map: Use doors, elevators, and tight corners to your advantage. Breaking line-of-sight can sometimes confuse the Nextbot’s pathfinding.
  • Master Movement: Advanced techniques like “bunny hopping” (b-hopping) can give you the speed boost you need to stay ahead.
  • There’s Safety in Numbers: Bring friends! A Nextbot can only chase one person at a time, giving others a chance to breathe or set up traps.
