Spawning a car at a certain spot on the map?

[Mr.Mezzy]

So i'm trying to spawn an escalade on a certain part of the map. Here's the code I have right now but it doesn't spawn where I set it:

hook.Add( 'ShowSpare1', 'SpawnEscalade', function( ply )

		local ent = ents.Create( 'tdm_escalade' )
			ent:Spawn()
			ent:SetPos( Vector( 738.674255, -549.075317, -79.968750 ) )
	
	end )

TDM doesn't use custom entities unless he recently changed.. Scars do, but typically you spawn a prop_vehicle_jeep, set the vehicle, script, the model, etc...

Set the position and angle first, and don't forget to activate as it can crash your server if you don't for certain entities.

Oh boy. That's a hassle. Do lonewolfies cars have custom entities?

[Acecool]

Nope, not that I know of, although my game usually crashes with LW cars, not sure why. Haven't tried them recently...

It isn't much of a hassle, the cars come with the vehiclescript and a Lua file which sets everything up. You just need to write a script to interpret his format which isn't too difficult.
