no damn clue how they show up, they are like the other entities (shadow kleiner and semper) though so they can show up in other maps that aren't related to gm_construct 13 beta, somebody shared screenshots of a mingebag that appeared when they were playing gm_bigcity with their friend which proves they are like semper and shadow kleiner in that way, so maybe both of us got really unlucky, i have seen mingebag but now i have an actual idea on what to do with him but he never showed up after i got the idea, i waited 45 minutes, he was not going to show up any time soon

well i was doin some reasearch, looked in the addon files and there were timers, its not a progression or trigger, just a timer that randomly adds you to 1 of 3 lobbys and an amount of players

is this timer random, or is there a specific amount of time that you have to wait before you are connected?

so here is the code;
Estimates (2022/02/02): Max connection time: By trial and error I set the minimum interval for exchanging information to be 0.25s = 4 times per second = 240 times per minute = 240 database writes per minute per player = 480 database writes per minute per 2 players My limit is 5000 writes, so I can safely sustain the above interaction 10 times and spare 200 writes It means we have 10 minutes of playing per hour In conclusion, the lobby time equation is (x * y = 600), where x = the time in seconds and y = the repetitions per hour Max players per day: 250 ~ 400 players download the map daily Probably the map has 350 players daily Max lobbies per day: It's the lobbies per hour times 24 Expected gameplay: (40 * y = 600) => y = 15 So 40s of gameplay can happen 15 times per hour = a lobby every 240s = 4m 15 * 24 = 360 lobbies per day per server It's 720 lobbies per day with 2 servers This way 4 players play for 40s every 4 minutes, which probably covers demand during the peak.

I do not know anything about this Since I haven't played this map quite a long time but Are Mingebags supposed to be Scripted encounters found on Random maps? That's just hella spooky

That's something interesting & new. Also, I found this picture in the vent with a mingebag near the lake flying around with the physgun working, the player holding a weapon and the black figure near the 3rd tower entrance meaning it's the black kleiner. I can't post that unfortunately but I'll just post at the discord GMod community

You really can't. You can try using ent_create gm13_mingebag, but it really just gives a message "Run ENT:Time" something in console...
