Ok, so I've got whole bunch of entities all running off a trigger and a multimanager.
But I want to reset the whole thing after 10 seconds.
To give you as much detail as I can:
trigger sets off multi, multi sets off env_render (things disappear), multi nulls trigger, multi sets off game_counter (do I really need this, or can I do it thru the multi?), game_counter then does .... what do I need to do to reset the whole sha-bang?

Retarget them, usually. Depends on the entities involved.

To reset a game_counter you should use a game_counter_set.
To make those entities appear again, trigger another env_render that sets them back to their normal render mode.

ah, of course. hey CP, can i post in the map vault what i have so far, see if you can make sense of it.
i have a trigger hurt, that i've triggered to turn off after a while, but i want it back opn, how would i do that?
the game counter i used was just a guess tbh, but if that's the right one then i'll have to work it out?

her's the link for the map i uploaded, it's just the entities, nothing pretty, i'd be honoured if you could take a look.

Ah, I get the idea...
Well, a trigger_hurt can be reactivated by triggering it again... so all you need to do is trigger the trigger_hurt twice, first to deactivate it and then to reactivate it.
Also note that the 'reactivating' env_render renders the health icon solid, you would change it's properties to make the health icon appear like it initially did.

ah, yeah, i rushed that one a little, ok, cool, but.. hmm. i have two entities named the same there, and one has more of a see-thru nature than the other. so how would i sort that?

Giving them different names, and using two more env_renders...
