[L4D2] Alpha decay?

I'm trying to create a function in which the entity gradually disappears through the alpha, but it's not working.

If anyone can help me I'll be grateful

PHP Code:


		
			
SetEntityRenderMode(entity, RENDER_TRANSCOLOR);
SetEntityRenderColor(entity, 255,255,255, 50); //50 is alpha

Re: [L4D2] Alpha decay?

need more info, we don't even know which entity classname are you using, you mentioned env_smokestack, but without more code is just a guess
and you code btw you are reseting the alpha everytime to "0" in the else clause, and I hope is just a snippet code, otherwise [2000] array is not enough, sometimes the (network) entities created may be between 1~2048 in L4D2

I'm not sure it will work.
In your code

PHP Code:


		
			
if(Alpha[entity] >= 255) Alpha[entity] = 255;
else Alpha[entity] = 0;

has an logic error(if your purpose is what I guess...). It will make alpha array always be 0 or 255. And if you didn't give the initial value as 255, it will always be 0.
So the value you input to entity will always be (255 - 0).
