Entity description
These are the classic, slow-moving headcrabs. They attack by jumping at the player's head and inflict a nominal amount of damage. Almost any weapon can dispatch them easily - it is usually a matter of how long it will take.
Commonly found attached to a zombie host body, they will detach if that host is sufficiently damaged below the head.
Placement Tip:Classic headcrabs can be paired with their fast-moving or poisonous relatives to make it more interesting.Placement Tip:Avoid the cliche of placing headcrabs in vents; they would likely be more of an annoyance than a improvement on gameplay.Note:Some keyvalues, spawnflags, effect flags, inputs, or outputs might not affect an NPC, based on the functionality and coding of the NPC.Dedicated CVARs
