Hi !

I want to know if some one have succes in spawning object in TF2 like sentry, dispencer etc ?

And how can we do that in scripting ?

I have see this "MaxObjects 1" in objects.txt and if we change the number to 2 we can build 2 senttry. how change this data instead of editing file ?

if I edit file, all players can build to 2 sentry, but i want to do it on specefic player

any help ?

Thanks

DispatchSpawn works fine on any entity, although for a sentry to actually work you'll have to set many more options. Like who it belongs to etc. There have been topics about this, but I don't think anyone has been able to get it to work. It's way easier to change MaxObjects to a high number and then limit the times a specific client can use the build command.

any possibility to edit some entity about maxobject instead of files ?

They were supposed to have added the ability to place sentries and dispensers in maps in a recent update. If they did, there should be some new flags or keyvalues or inputs that would let you spawn more.

LouLou: Editing the script txt file is the only way anyone has done it so far.

They were added, they are obj_sentrygun and obj_dispenser, but I personally have not used them yet either via map placement or using SourceMod.

humm ok

is it possible to spawn other entity like a player ? (not a fake client !)

spawn a fake player using a "player entity" and the player will be visible in score board, on server info etc (with fake client function)

any idea/help ?

No. It's either a bot or a live player, there is no grey area.

If that was possible, and found out about, you can bet someone would make a new fake players plugin, and a week later valve would have a fix.
