a - Custom shipments and replacements of the default ones.Wiremod is a user-created mod that significantly expands the sandbox capabilities of the game by adding a large number of pseudo-electronic components such as microcontrollers, logic gates, buttons, radios, gyroscopes, screens, GPS modules, sensors, laser rangefinders, speed sensors and much more.

Wiring these components together allows the player to create a very large variety of electronically-controlled machines.

It also features Expression2 (E2) general-purpose controllers, which allow the player to program the chip with a high-level programming language to compute inputs and outputs to control a wide swathe of elements. CPU modules, which use a Low-level programming language, allow similar capabilities, as well as the capability to render graphics on a digital screen, to be able to fully simulate a virtual computer. The use of Wiremod allows the creation of very complex contraptions, and everything from virtual computers to missiles, aircraft, spaceships and space probes, robots and drones all constructed from components available in-game without the use of modded entities. Garry's Mod won Computer Games Magazine 's 2005 'Best Mod' and PC Gamer US 's 'Best Mod 2005' awards. The latter magazine's Dan Stapleton called it 'ingenious'. Garry's Mod also won the Steam Awards 'Defies Description' Award in 2017. Also in 2017, it was featured in Rock, Paper, Shotgun 's Have You Played? series.
