Used on

Additional Notes

• Unless spawnflags are set in the entity's spawn list entry, most entities will return nil when spawned in the game using the Q menu.
• Here the number 131072 corresponds to the numerical value of the spawnflag, SF_CITIZEN_MEDIC, which could have been used instead.
• Note that an npc with any combination of spawnflags will work with this code due to the way spawnflags are designed. So for this example an npc_citizen with the spawnflags 393736 ( Drop Healthkit, Fade Corpse, Medic, Random Head ) will still return true.
