Ok i have a problem.
i want to spawn like 7-9 people in this kind of hall with pillars.
what i did was used a trigger that spawned the enemy |"Pillar Fighter" and then just put down multiple pillar fighters but it didn't work.
it said Line error at q9p247012947a or watever... but anyway i tested multiple spawning with two guy but it didn't work. what do you put in the ifused box to spawn another different character?

Noob = Meh...

Ok, this is what you must do...

1.Place a Trigger zone on your map (purple box)
2.Set the trigger zone's main script to "plrinzoneactivateused.fpi"
3.In the ifused box, put the name of your enemies example "enemy"
4.Place your enemies around the map and name them "enemy" or what ever you specified in the ifused box.
5.On the characters menu, set the following...

-spawn at start no
-max at any time 1
-maximum spawn 1
-spawn after delay yes
-number to spawn 1

Now, when you run the game and walk through that trigger zone, those named enemies will be spawned. Hope this helps.

what happens if you dont kill them, if the player doesnt shoot them they will be hanging about, I presume this is for optomization that he is spawning enemies.

Yes, they will continue to hang aroung and eat cycles. You can use something like:

plrdistfurther=1000:destroy

to get rid of them if you move on without killing them.

Best.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

I personally wouldn't even attempt 7-9 enemies unless they are exceptionally low poly

Not everyone has a 2.6 gigahertz processor.
It depends on the complexity and size on the fpi's the enemies are using, and the speed of your computer.
