 #### Garry's Mod Download enforcer
 
 In order for a client to download files from a FastDL in Garry's Mod, the developer of an addon must put files from the addon into lua code `resource.Addfile ( "/path/to/file.ext" )`. However, some addon developers do not do this. In order for clients to download the required files, an lua file needs to be generated for it to work, which is what the lua enforcer feature does. The only downside is that clients may download files that are not required on the server.

-# Multiple Game Servers
+# Running Multiple Game Servers
 
 Depending upon the game server you are running it is possible to run multiple game servers on the same server host.
 
 **There are two recommended ways to run multiple game servers on one physical server**.\
 Depending upon the circumstances you may choose a particular method or mixture of both.
 
 It is best to make a proper plan for running multiple game servers at the earliest stage of your deployment.\
