<function name="PreEntityCopy" parent="ENTITY" type="hook"> <description> Called before the duplicator copies the entity. If you are looking for a way to make the duplicator spawn another entity when duplicated. (For example, you duplicate a `prop_physics`, but you want the duplicator to spawn `prop_physics_my` ), you should add `prop_physics.ClassOverride = "prop_physics_my"`. The duplication table should be also stored on that `prop_physics`, not on `prop_physics_my`. If you are looking for a way to make the duplicator spawn another entity when duplicated.
