entity_get_edict

Syntax

native entity_get_edict(iIndex, iKey);

Usage

Entity index

Entry to retrieve from

Description

Returns an edict type value from an entities entvar struct.

Note

• For a list of valid edict type entries, see the EV_ENT_* constants in
  engine_const.inc

• This native returns 0 as an error value if the edict retrieved from the
  entvar is an invalid entity. As 0 is an entity index that is
  considered to be a valid value for some entvars ("worldspawn"), this
  native can potentially return a misleading value. Use
  entity_get_edict2() for a safe version.

Return

Entity index in specified entry, 0 if the edict in the
entvar is not a valid entity or an invalid entry was
specified

Error

If an invalid entity index is provided, an error will be
thrown.
