The problem is the monster is stuck in the wall or too close to the wall or a brush entity. When a monster/player/model gets stuck in a wall, the engine
creates those dots/flies to draw your attention, so you realize your mistake. Simply move him/it out of the
wall and it will be okay.

I've allways wondered what Those particles are. Does they only appear in "-dev" mode? I allways run the game in "-dev" mode when I compile my maps, so I never check them in normal mode. Also, does they only appear when the map is compiled, i.e is it safe to teleport a "monster/npc" into a brush using a "scripted_sequence" or similiar at runtime?
