That's because the entity is still there because it's a spawner, non spawners like weapon_pistol you won't need to remove the glow.

Is it still fine to delete the spawner though? I guess that means no new pipe bomb can reappear on that spot, at least not until the next round starts.

Now I need to find a way to readd the glow back on a dropped entity. The weapon_drop event seems like the best place to do that, but all the checks against weapon types, color settings etc, will be a bitch.

Use SDKHooks, OnEntityCreated, some plugin somewhere will have all this for weapons already. Add the glow in this function and you don't need it elsewhere. Glow staying bug, hmm... from my Extinguisher plugin:

PHP Code:

SetEntProp(entity, Prop_Send, "m_nGlowRange", 350);
SetEntProp(entity, Prop_Send, "m_iGlowType", 2);
SetEntProp(entity, Prop_Send, "m_glowColorOverride", g_iCvarGlowS);
AcceptEntityInput(entity, "StartGlowing");

SetVariantString("OnKilled !self:StopGlowing::0:1"); 


Tried? AcceptEntityInput(entity, "StopGlowing");

Or look at my Footlocker plugin, this had issues with objects glowing on the return journey of Hard Rain. I might of fixed it there, or that was the reason I made the boxes respawn in the same spot with the same items. Can't remember. If it's only the spawner which is stuck, then check it's object count when it's picked up (again code in Footlocker), and delete if it's no longer giving items.

StopGlowing had no effect. Here's a new version. It won't add glow to prop_ classtypes. Think I found a gas can that wasn't glowing because it was a prop_physics which would require modelname checks. I'll try and fix that.

I'm still using m_iGlowType 1 because 2 isn't working on all items. m_iGlowType 3 would clearly have been the best one to use if it wasn't for the wallhack issue.
m_iGlowType 1 and 2 seems to have glitches when one is not directly looking at the item, causing the glow to flash on and off while in motion.

If anyone wants to rewrite this, be my guest. Including sdkhooks would probably be more effecient.

edit: It got me thinking. All this must surely already exist in some kind of workshop VPK mod?

The walls blocked the glow

Do you actually want the items to glow through walls? You'd want to force m_iGlowtype 3 on everything then.

I have a question as to regarding sdkhooks. OnEntityCreated doesn't seem to fire for prop_physics?

public void OnEntityCreated(int entity, const char[] classname)
{
	if (StrEqual(classname, "prop_physics", false))
	{
		PrintToChatAll("physics - now lets check model");
	}
}

Does nothing.

A fix for the gascans on these 3 maps is also needed - c7m3, c6m3 and c1m4. I suppose the gas cans should have glowtype 3 and glow range 0
so they become visible as they should.

There is a small mistake.

It's on the guns, but it just leaves a mark on the guns.

Ty, I'll try to fix that soon.

"physics_prop" and "prop_physics"

Ok. Found another problem which I dislike with OnEntityCreated. A 0.1 second timer is needed on some entities or otherwise glow won't appear on it. Took me a while to figure out why certain items wouldn't glow lol.
If it has glitches like that, it's safer to use a timer for every entity.
