Hey,
I'm starting to work with zones, and tried somethings out but nothing worked.
Can someone please help and post here a tutorial or something?
And please don't give me the "Dev Zones" because it's not helping me.
Thanks.

Another method is also creating a trigger for the zone and hooking StartTouch and EndTouch

    Format(sZoneName, sizeof(sZoneName), "%s", g_mapZones[zoneIndex][zoneName]);

        // 128 - Start off, has to be activated by a target_activate to be touchable/usable

you can use this code to create an entity and check if the player inside by hooking StartTouch and EndTouch.
