Monster
All NPCs are referred to as "monsters" in Quake, Quake II, and GoldSrc. This includes both enemy and allied NPCs. Multiplayer bots are not considered monsters, as they are players.
Source changes most "monster" terminology to "npc", but some remnants exist, such as the contents flag for NPCs, which is referred to as CONTENTS_MONSTER
, and the leftover monster_generic
entity.
