Description
This is a tool made in order to spawn random choosen entities in a specific shape with or without a spawner.

It allows you to spawn a lot of entities, see the following list of compatibles categories :
─ Weapons
─ Scripted Entities
─ NPCs
─ Vehicles
─ simfphys vehicles

Shapes
Shapes are used to spawn entities in a certain geometrical form, they only impact on position, angle and number of entities.

Shapes
Description
None
Spawn at a single point
Circle
Spawn in a standar circular shape with editable radius and entities number
Square
Spawn in a rectangular shape with editable wide, tall and offset between each entities
Random
Spawn in a circular shape with a random radius on each entity giving a random impression; the number, maximum radius, x and y ratios are editable as well; this shape might be usefull in apocalypse/zombie-like servers

Spawners
Spawners are used to spawn random choosen entities at a fixed delay and a fixed maximum of entities. They can be permanently saved on the map or just temporary. They are usefull to spawn groups of NPCs (like zombies) or to spawn vehicles or weapons periodically for an apocalypse server for example.

A Player Presence Radius system is implemented, allowing spawner to only run when a player is within a defined radius, which also has an option to make spawners entities to disappear when no player is within the range.

Green spawners are non-permanent spawners and red spawners are permanent (saved and loaded on server restart) ones.

ConVars
These are technically-advanced convars which are only useful if you make custom scripts integrations for this system:
- `vkx_entspawner_network_superadmin_only <0 or 1>`: server; default to `1`; Should the spawners be networked to superadmin only or be available for other players?
- `vkx_entspawner_network_run <0 or 1>`: server; default to `0`; Should the spawners run-time be networked to allowed users? This option syncs the new spawner properties to clients. Users are defined by `vkx_entspawner_network_superadmin_only` convar

Known Issues
"It do nothing when I left click"
Due to prediction system, the tool doesn't work properly on singleplayer. If you want to use this tool in solo, I recommand you to create a +2 players game (in the game starting options). (fixed since 19/06/2022)

Otherwise, an entity can block the spawning. Try to spawn your entity without spawners, you should see notifications error if the entity doesn't spawn. If you encountered an entity which should not blocking the spawn, please comment below by mentionning both the map name and the entity name so that I can fix the issue.

"I can't spawn ZBASE NPCs"
You need to check the "Default Spawn Menu" option in ZBASE menu (from the 'Options' tab of the spawnmenu) in order for them to be spawnable.

Alright, hope you find a way to your problem, you're welcome!

Yes, recycling is a mechanic of my mode. But helping me is not worth it, since I asked my friend to make props as an entity. Also thank you for this beautiful addon)

@D3LTuM I already know that, my point is: do you have precision on what is your gamemode and the "recycling" part? Is it your own custom gamemode? Is "recycling" a mechanic of that gamemode? If yes to both, as a workaround, I could suggest to create a custom entity for your "recycling" mechanic that you use as a spawnable entity with my tool

You asked me why I need your addon to spawn the prop, I replied that I need it for my game mode
Guthen  [Δημιουργός] 11 Δεκ, 9:14 
@D3LTuM I'm not sure what does that mean, can you be more precise?
D3LTuM #tweek 10 Δεκ, 4:43 
I need it for my gamemode. It's supposed to spawn props for recycling.

Hello @D3LTuM, currently there is no way of doing it, you could theoretically create a custom entity script that spawns with a specific model (acting like a prop), but that could be very inconvenient if you want multiple models to spawn. For what usage do you want this?
D3LTuM #tweek 7 Δεκ, 7:51 
Is there any way to add a prop to spawn it?

@Hosterie I see, I've read the code of ZBASE and according to the implementation of both mods (ZBASE and mine) it makes total sense. I'm gonna write that down and close the issue on Github. Thank you very much!
