Okay, I want to disable an entity when I shoot it, and not destroy it. That's easy enough with the "leavecorpse.fpi" destroy script, but I want the entity to "come back to life" after about 20 seconds.

Here is what I got so far:

Destroy script:


I have the entity's "Strength" property set to 1 so that it'll "die" in one shot and run this script.

When I test the game and shoot the entity, it will disable and re-animate after 20 seconds... but after running half of it's animation, it will disable again.

How do I bring the entity back to life?

If I am unable to give it health, then how can I do this without using the destroy script?

play around with the respawn options in the editor.
If think there is a spwan after delay and spawn when dead and such things.
Have a try and tell if it works.

It probably would work, but I don't want the entity to disappear, or even have many of the same entity popping up in the same spot when a new one spawns.

I dunno, maybe I'm overthinking how this would work, I'll go give it a shot and let you know the result.

Got it working, however, when the entity respawns, it will disappear and reappear again very quickly. that's just a mild graphical bug, but it would be nice to find a way around it, like maybe respawning one THEN destroying the old one.
