what happens to BaseEntites, that spawn via map after roundrestart? if i set an entity in python like this, during a round:
Syntax: Select all
for ent in EntityIter():
if ent.get_key_value_string("targetname") == "some_targetname":
last_round_ent = ent
will "last_round_ent" still be accessable next maprestart?

i was specifically thinking of func_wall, when i asked the question. if i remember correctly, it was still accessible in the next round when i tested a while back, thats kinda why im trying to pose this question here

okay i've just read the wiki now. i hope it is correct, because it is pretty clear on which entities will reset and which not. thanks iPlayer.

func_wall (as well as func_brush and func_illusionary) is on that list, so it carries its state through rounds, including its open/closed state. It might be useful for map creators to transit some data between rounds (when plugins are not available).
I believe func_wall will also preserve the targetname.
