Entity Description
An entity used to limit the number of a particular weapon type in the world. Useful in places where NPCs are spawning rapidly, dying, and dropping weapons.
This entity conducts a count of all the weapons in the world of my type and see if we have a surplus. If there is a surplus, try to find suitable candidates for removal. Right now we just remove the first weapons we find that are behind the player, or are out of the player's PVS.
Note:This code is designed to not remove weapons that are hand-placed by level designers. It should only clean up weapons dropped by dead NPCs, which is useful in situations where enemies are spawned in for a sustained period of time.Warning:This entity is designed using UTIL_GetLocalPlayer, which returns NULL in any type of multiplayer game.Availability
