Using ents.Create() To Create NPC's

[KKlouzal]

I am using ents.create to spawn NPC's into the game, do I need to equip npc's with some sort of melee weapon? I spawn npc's and they can't hurt players, if you kill a zombie, the headcrab that falls off is able to hurt players, I don't understand whats going on..

I am still having no luck on getting NPC's I spawn with ents.Create() to actually damage players, any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Second:
Got no clue what you mean .. if you want to spawn a NPC you need something like this
[lua]
ents.Create("npc_citizen")
ents:SetPos( Vector(X,Y,Z) )
ents:Spawn()
[/lua]

Yes that is correct, I am able to spawn NPC's but their attacks do not damage players. If I spawn a zombie the zombie's melee attacks do not damage the player, if the headcrab falls off the zombie the headcrab will damage the player.
