Help creating a simple output?

[nanoxax]

What I want to do is create an output so that when an NPC sees a corpse/ragdoll they do whatever I set them to do in Hammer. I've already tried to implement my own output but I got nowhere. I can't figure out how to make anything trigger the output. Do I need to create a schedule for this or is there any easier route. I've been working a while on this and cannot find a solution.

by default, npcs dont just register everything they can possibly see. You'll have to make a think function that checks every xxx seconds if a certain other object is in their field of view. In your case, this means running a piece of code that checks every corpse/ragdoll in the map whether or not it is in the npcs field of view, and if it is, fires an output. Im sure you can imagine why this code isnt there by default. You'll have to create it yourself.

Can trigger_multiple detect ragdolls?
Cause in that case, parent a trigger on to the npc in front of him with a filter set to ragdolls and activate a relay when it is triggered.

Could look at the trigger_look code for reference maybe?
