Well, it's good to see you're trying to learn scripting.

First things first, you can't use the active= command like that. It is always paired with a number and it only effects the activation variable for the script.

Next up, what you could try to do is specify the decal in the entity's fpe file and then use the rundecal= command to have the decal play.

I can't for certain if that'd work, since my FPSC computer is currently unavailable, but it's worth a shot, right?

I'm trying to do something similar to this.
You've given me an excellent idea actually, but unfortunately I don't know the numeric value for any of the decals.
How might one go about using the "rundecal" method?

If you must know, I'm trying to script a zombie that explodes in a cloud of blood when you kill him.
