Hi
Im trying to spawn a ragdoll at a certain pos on the map and make it stand in a normal postion, standing up, looks forward and has his arms and hands down.
How can i make this?
ive managed to make it spawn in the right pos, but how do i freeze the ragdoll?
**[PhysObj.EnableMotion

Possibly?
Well there is a console command for this, not sure if it will help
ent_fire yourent setanimation animationname
You can find the animation name in hammer. For more info look at this vid at around 2:45
Snip -
Maybe this. **[Entity.SetSequence

Why not just spawn a NPC?
i want to make this.
Spawn maybe a NPC with unlimeted health.
The NPC cant move it just stands on one place.
when i press E on it, it will pop up a derma screen.
Do anyone know how to do this.
im not asking u to do it just asking for help.
Well to make it open a derma menu you would use the ENT:Use and make the client run a console command which opens the menu. So something like this
[lua]
ENT:Use(activator, caller)
activator:ConCommand(“yourconcommand”)
end
[/lua]
Clientside you would then have the derma and a console command called “yourconcommand”.
To make it have unlimited health I think that you can return false on ENT:OnTakeDamage, or just use ENT:SetHealth(99999999999).
To make the npc just use
[lua]
ents.Create(“npc_citizen”)
[/lua]
Not sure how to make it not move though, maybe set it’s schedule to nil or something, I haven’t tried anything with NPCs before so I don’t know.
By the way are you making an NPC shop? Lots of people have been doing that recently.
Usermessages are so much better for this than a console command

Yep you’re right lol
