MG42 gunner not spawned.

Don't worry, that is just a typo. I checked and it is indeed "$targetname".
So that's not it... What is wrong? I'm about to give up

BTW, it is properties, not proporties like i typed before.
English is not my primary language, so cut me some slack...

Make sure your worldspawn doesn't have a targetname.

Worldspam properties:
--------------------------
ambient = 30 30 30
ambientlight = 30 30 30
angle = 0
classname = worldspam
suncolor = 70 70 70
sundirection = 180

Nope, no targetname in there...

Ok, I just asked because I've seen worldspawn targetnames cause more unexplainable errors.

Any errors in the consoloe by the way?

Yes, yes, YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS....

Script error!!!

I checked my script 10 times, but always overlooked this little screw-up.

I apperently typed mg41 instead of mg42

Okay, here is my final question

The spawned gunners always run for their mg and then they crouch.
This means that when the spotter see me, the gunner starts firing the mg in the air before he stands up.

Is there a way to NOT make the gunner crouch?
BTW, the "crouch" option is NOT checked in the info_pathnote...

Nope that's not possible, you have to blame the developers of mohaa for that. They used the sloppy time delay before firing method because the 'waittill ontarget' statement often causes a fatal crash of the game

.

Mg gunners always crouch, unless shooting down. That's just how the game handles their animations. No possibility to change that without the source code I think.
