Class hierarchy
CL4D1SurvivorSpawn ↳CBaseEntity

Template:L4d2 point It is used to spawn one of the original survivors from L4D1 as seen in The Passing campaign.

You can use this entity in your maps to create the feeling of a bigger world, like in The Passing. They're able to use weapons and target infected, much like the Survivor bots on your team. However, they're more limited to the bots on your team in that they can't move around the map independently.
Louis is the only survivor bot capable of using the prop_mounted_machine_gun and will walk towards it himself, if the navmesh allows it.
