entity_get_edict

Syntax

native entity_get_edict(iIndex, iKey);

Description

Returns an edict type value from an entities entvar struct.

Parameters

Note

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

Note

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.
