Is the Idx of a entity static or dynamic?
[lua]
function GetIdx(ply)
local tr = ply:GetEyeTrace()
if ValidEntity(tr.Entity) then
ply:ChatPrint(tr.Entity.EntIndex())
end
end
concommand.Add(“rp_getidx”,GetIdx)
[/lua]
Why does that always print 0 when looking at a entity?
tr.Entity:EntIndex()

it’s static until the game ends.
It also changes depending on how many slots a server is and etc, so don’t bother relying on it for more than a single map’s duration.
Not sure what Uberpwns thinks, but this is true.
entity.EntIndex(entity) or entity:EntIndex(), since it’s defined as a method.
