Is there a way you can add a feature to just randomly spawn any NPC the player has downloaded?

nope you cant choose what you want to spawn

Is there not a mod that can just randomly place enemies a la Left 4 Dead? Ideally want to do is just download random maps and have zombies or combine randomly placed. Why do they need nodes?

I was expecting this to constantly spawn enemies randomly throughout the map, not spawn a group of 30 assorted NPCs right in front of my face when I press a button.
Artificer 10 Dec, 2022 @ 8:01am 
Just wondering before I get the addon, can you choose what AI spawns?

Can you make it possible to have it spawn random NPCs that you have downloaded from other mods too?
Obsidianarc 19 Mar, 2022 @ 7:45pm 
is there a color randomizer tool mod?

I don't think this is being updated anymore.
gimpero 29 Dec, 2021 @ 6:29pm 
is there anyway to make this constant and with hunters?
rompe barillas 29 Dec, 2021 @ 2:45am 
I uninstalled this mod, but the NPC reappears, which prevents me from playing normally. How do I stop NPS from spawning?

Could you maby add Metro Police?
Kangaro fight 22 Jun, 2021 @ 8:25pm 
not only the engine, but some maps does not allow a lot of npc without laggin. its because some maps consume a lot of resources with details, that are useless unless you do scenes. thats why most of times, big detailed maps arent very good for npc. like on the default big city you can spawn like 40 npc or something, but the big city improved it will lag with about 10. cause the system spends a lot of memory procesing reflections and polygons.

as someone who really likes boss fights, this is boppin with enemy variations x
mr. engino 17 May, 2021 @ 10:50pm 
It seems that zombies will not spawn, can this issue be fixed?
76561198167566727 28 Mar, 2021 @ 7:52am 
Can they please spawn in random locations rather than grouping up into 1 place?
Taco-Bell Leftovers 17 Feb, 2021 @ 2:11pm 
Is there a way to change what weaponry the NPCs spawn with?
Eukian 16 Feb, 2021 @ 4:37pm 
fixes my laziness
thanks

is it possible for this to work with other npc addons?
geo 22 Jan, 2021 @ 2:28am 
is it possible to do this but with props / interact-able entities? asking this for slender stuff

I believe GMod has a 64x version of some sort, but it still only uses a tiny bit of memory. There's not much that facepunch can do since source is so old.
Peekofwar 26 Dec, 2020 @ 9:37pm 
Isn't GMod 64x now if you select it in the BETAs tab? Or is the engine itself still 32x?
Solrob  [author] 26 Dec, 2020 @ 9:33pm 
Source is a really old engine, and because it's 32 bit it's only capable of using like one thread and a few gigabytes of RAM.
Peekofwar 26 Dec, 2020 @ 2:27pm 
But the problem is that after they all spawn, the game continues to lag, as if it's hogging the CPU thread or whatever and doesn't yield or something.
Solrob  [author] 25 Dec, 2020 @ 9:45pm 
Probably a result of how old the source is combined with spawning a lot of NPCs at once.
Peekofwar 25 Dec, 2020 @ 2:49pm 
I can manually spawn a whole line of 50+ combine soldiers, but if I spawn ten with this addon, the game lags.
Peekofwar 25 Dec, 2020 @ 2:47pm 
Why does this lag so much with so few NPCs? I have an AND Ryzen 7 3700X...
