Zombie/NPC Invasion+

Description
IF YOU ENCOUNTER ANY ISSUES READ THIS ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ASKING FOR HELP

This is a fixed and improved version of JASON's great addon, Zombie/NPC Invasion.

The original addon IS NOT required! Please uninstall it to prevent any conflicts.

Summary
This addon will constantly spawn random NPCs within a certain distance of any player.
As of now no other addons/gamemodes do this without manually placing NPC spawners everywhere.

Not only zombies can be spawned, but any class that works normally in the game.
Spawn settings can be changed via the "Spawn Editor" in the Q menu options.

This mod REQUIRES NPC info_nodes to work properly on all maps. Without them NPCs might not spawn. You can use the Nodegraph Editor to add your own info_nodes

Please rate this addon! Thanks

Features
  • Multiple spawn profiles
  • Advanced spawn options (KeyValues and spawn flags)
  • Dynamic support for all NPCs
  • Explosive NPCs
  • Chase players setting


Settings
You can change all of the settings via the spawn menu interface (in the Q menu) or through the GMod console.

In the GMod console you can use the following commands:
  • zinv 1/0 - On/Off.
  • zinv_explode 1/0 - NPCs explode when they die. (added so they can damage props if GCombat is installed)
  • zinv_maxdist 0-9999 - NPCs wont spawn further than this.
  • zinv_mindist 0-9999 - NPCs will only spawn after this distance from a player.
  • zinv_chaseplayers 1/0 - NPCs will try to move to the closest player.
  • zinv_maxspawn 0-300 - Max NPCs

To enable the console, go options>keyboard>advanced>enable developer console, then press the "~" key (the button above the tab key).

They occasionally spawn in the skybox. Otherwise, this seems like a perfect addon, though I'd add the option for spawning NPCs out of sight.

Sorry if you've already answered this, but how exactly does the spawning work? Does it check for the first spawn and then go down the list, or does it choose out of every npc at once?

this mod has nothing to do with nodes, whether nodes are relevant depends on what kind of NPCs you're spawning. This addon just does the spawning, the NPCs have to figure out the navigation.

Does it work on a ai node map? Like could i just do that without using info_nodes?
