hey Arkshine would you please give me some info about origins.
And again i want to ask can't i just say spawn entity at specific coords(x 10, y 15, z - drop to floor)
And can I see if there is something at a specific origin(will the monster be spawned on top of another monster)
And lastly when i have the origin can i change it so that it spawns the monster a little away from the origin

[Arkshine]

What you ask is what does basically CSDM. You have pre-defined spawn points and you will spawn if nobody is already to this spawn. So you should take a look on how CSDM handles that.

[solano]

using your code (register_ham) player get frag when he kills amonster
but there is a problem.when the monster is killed it either leaves a corpse
or laves organs and shit.the player get the frag when those stuff disapear
so my question is how to determin death animation end
whan i want is when you kill the zombie
a. if it leaves a corpse remove it and give the player a frag
b. if it leaves organs remove them and same thing
but i want there to be death animation

[Arkshine]

Not sure to understand because when I've tried, zombie corpse disappears (fade) after some times like the gibs too.

[solano]

yes they fade away but it takes them like 2 to 3 minutes
and i want them to disapear instantly(or stay 30 seconds most)

[solano]

i went through it and i now understand what i need to do but i couldn't find how to check if there is something at a certain origin

[Arkshine]

You have to trace a hull to see if the place is vacant.

In CSDM, it uses the native : csdm_trace_hull

But you can use : fm_trace_hull() from fakemeta_util.

Haxx way to precache zombie resources

public plugin_precache( ) {
    new iEntity = create_entity( "monster_zombie" );
    
    if( iEntity ) {
        DispatchSpawn( iEntity );
        remove_entity( iEntity );
    }
}

thank you arkshine i will now write a prototype plugin and see what i can do
and thank you xPaw for the code snippet

btw arkshine could you tell me where to check what the different pev are for
like pev_target,pev_user1 etc...

[solano]

pretty please
and before you say i searched for pev and it just showed me different pevs and thats all no info about em
