I have tried everything, when I set the the spawn to not spawn from the beginning the entity dosnt show up, so good so far.. But later when I want to activate and spawnon the entity it is just gone...
Something wrong with My scripts???

Can you be more descriptive on your exact scenario/use for this? I have tested the spawnon/spawnoff commands but they don't seem to work whatsoever. Its either the command does not work or spawn at start is a one time check and any respawns skip that value. But if you just want something to spawn when activated the spawn command is not necessary just use "spawn at start=no" and create a script/trigger/lever that activates the entity with "activateifused=" command. Worked fine for me. Just cant tell the entity to stop spawning if you have its "maximum spawn" to something like 100.

The link below is to a YouTube video tutorial on how to use the spawn delay for dynamic entities for FPS creator (classic). I hope this is helpful to you.

Best regards.

I fixed it! Just by use the setalphafade and coloff, colon commandos

Here is the script:

:state=0:setalphafade=0,coloff,state=1
:state=1,activated=9:setalphafade=100,colon

Is this your "appear" script? If so I believe you can do withought the collision commands but its better to be safe than sorry I guess.

Im just happy that I didnt need this character to move, respawn this object without "isimmobile" and the entity is halfway thru the floor...

No it does not it just makes the object transparent, I was referring to the coloff and colon commands.
Sorry, I meant to say your "Start" script under entity properties. If so I believe the stock "appear2" script is very similar but checks to make sure the alphafade has been correctly set, and it runs "fpidefault 1" which lets you use a main script in case you ever need it to move.
Just add the "activated=9" condition somewhere and it should work like a charm.
