How do you delete an NPC? Created 17 years ago2006-10-02 00:01:52 UTC by koalaz2004

Im trying to make a ghost model go through 2 paths and then after it gets out of sight delete its self so the player cant find it. Just like Gman does alot in HL1. Thanks a tun for any help. (Edit) Also is it possible to use a trigger_once command and have the NPC be triggerd to go down the path and after it hits the last waypoint delete its self and can you change the speed of the NPC to make it go really fast or really slow?. Thanks

Whereever you want him to disappear, set the trigger to kill the npc, then it will disappear when it walks through the trigger Hope that helps a little because i cant remember exactly how to do it, sorry.

Last path_corner

• fire on pass: relay_kill_ghost

trigger_relay

• name: relay_kill_ghost
• kill target: name_of_your_ghost_train

Should work.

Unless you use a trigger_push or an invisible func_conveyor, I don't know how you can make an NPC move faster/slower.

Couldn't you just change the speed on the path_corner?

Thank you guys for the help -- But when I name the ghost (Like give it a name) It will not go through the paths. Thanks again guys.

Set the target of whatever the damn thing is to the name of the first path_corner, unless its func_train: use the "first stop target" for that.

That still does not help - I have to delete the NPC after it gets there - And for that I need to name it -- And If I name it it will not go down the path.

You need to trigger it to make it go down the path if you name it.

I allready did - It will not trigger - I give it a name -- I do trigger_once (Put in the name of the ghost) And it will not walk down the path if it has a name.

Did you put the name of the ghost entity in the name field of the trigger? It should be in the Target field.

If path_corners won't work for you use an (ai)scripted_sequnce with a walk to/run to setting and trigger that instead. (just don't set an amination and it will act just like a waypoint.)

Use a scripted_sequence insead of path_corners.. Path_corners with npcs isn't the bet way to go, there are too many things that can go wrong.
