If the prop_statics wouldn't be compiled vertex by vertex to maps, they would still have a single position in the world, as where the models need to be rendered. Do they get compiled vertex by vertex? As the word 'bake' sounds like they are.

I see. Thanks for your response, that really cleared things out :)

I just noticed that myself. So is that a bug or done on purpose?

I just tried with a survivor model, that works, but anything map related, for example,
models/props_foliage/urban_trees_dryleaves01.mdl
returns null. And I checked the model from hammer, and there should be a few prop_statics of that model in c3m1_plankcountry, where I tested it

I don't use the function itself on my mutation code, but I started testing it out after I found that the map sanitizing by model wasn't working.

So I've tried this function forming the path with model/ prefix, without it, without .mdl extension, and in all cases, the function returns null. So if I'm not missing anything, is the function broken?

Is there any way to convert the User ID to Entity ID?

I do have it in the map script. I guess I'll try manually calling the SanitizeMap function and see if that works.

I'm making Charge Dodgers, a mutation where you, surpisingly, dodge chargers, on a small area. I'm kinda ditching the entire director out of it, and implementing my own round and wave techniques and make it timer-based with the Update function.
Unfortunately, I havent been able to get entity groups spawning, and sanitizing with model name doesnt seem to be working either. Also, teleporting survivors while in the opening cutscene is pretty much unusable, so is there any game event that would occur when the cutscene ends?

May I have a key? :)
