spawning enemies

[kiwii]

how the hell do I spawn enemies? im doing a survival map where you have to survive waves of zombies, but I cant figure out how to do it. im pretty sure it involves Entities thou... anyone know ?

Ask RomeoJGuy, he's the guy that did antlion troopers, so he knows how to do it.

I guess you're creating a similar map.

P.S. Excellent avatar.

... you see, when a headcrab gets to a certain point in their life...

Yeah well anyway, two ways to do it, npc_maker, or npc_template_maker. The template maker allows you to specify more about the enemy by using a single template enemy for the enemy type you spawn, the maker is a little simpler. Use the help on each of them for further explanations of their workings.
