    Default spawning a prop from a holo

    i have a basic understanding if e2, but i need help. i am making a b-2 spirit hologram that is pod flown and can become nearly invisible, but, i want it to be able to repeatedly spawn a bomb of some sort and drop it as if the hologram were bombing you. is there anyway to do this without ruining the stealth feature? help would be much appreciated.

    You could either 1) Code a hologram bomb/explosion, no damage but cool effect, or 2) applyForce a propspawner with alpha of 0 into it, then spawn bombs from said propspawner.

    Code:
    E = holoEntity(Index):propSpawn("String",holoEntity(Index):pos(),1)
    E:setAlpha(0)

    propSpawn is part of propCore, an E2 extension in the UWSVN that is disabled by default. You have to enable it to be able to use it.

    In the console. I belive it's propcore_enable 1.
    Not quite sure though.

    Note that that will only work in singleplayer.
    To use propcore online, the server you are on must have propcore enabled and allow you to use it.
