I have an instance of env_blood spawned, and I'm trying to send it some input.

SetVariantInt(0);
AcceptEntityInput(blood, "Color", client);
		
SetVariantBool(true);
AcceptEntityInput(blood, "EnableDraw", client);
		
new Float:origin[3];
GetClientAbsOrigin(client, origin);
SetVariantPosVector3D(origin);
AcceptEntityInput(blood, "SetLocalOrigin", client);
		
SetVariantPosVector3D(direction);
AcceptEntityInput(blood, "SetLocalAngles", client);

When ran in game, I get the following errors:

!! ERROR: bad input/output link:
!! env_blood(env_blood,Color) doesn't match type from <null>(<null>)
!! ERROR: bad input/output link:
!! env_blood(env_blood,SetLocalOrigin) doesn't match type from <null>(<null>)
!! ERROR: bad input/output link:
!! env_blood(env_blood,SetLocalAngles) doesn't match type from <null>(<null>)

What exactly am I doing wrong? According to the ent_info console command (ent_info env_blood), all these inputs are valid.

Are you sure these are inputs and not KeyValues (which you send to it via DispatchKeyValue, DispatchKeyValueFloat, and DispatchKeyValueVector)?

Running console command "ent_info env_blood" gives me:

I was able to spawn env_blood using keyvalues in previous games (CSS, L4D2, etc). But using the keyvalue 'amount' crashes the game in CS:GO, and when removed, my code does nothing.
