How do I make NPCs wander/roam around?

Is there a way to spawn an NPC and instead of them standing there, they just wander around? If you spawn a zombie and a rebel and they're not line of sight, they just stand there and its boring. :(

I looked for an addon to do this and didn't see anything. Maybe I'm retarded.

Thanks!

It needs to be pre-defined in the map properties for citizens to randomly wander.

Zombies do it because that's their default AI.

You could decompile it (which generally screws everything up).

What do you mean? When I decompile a map into a vmf and back to a bsp everything is fine.
