ClientsideModel
Description
Creates a non physical entity that only exists on the client. See also ents.CreateClientProp.
Parented clientside models will become detached if the parent entity leaves the PVS. A workaround is available on its github page.

Clientside entities are not garbage-collected, thus you must store a reference to the object and call CSEnt:Remove manually. To workaround this bug, you need to hold a reference (in a variable) to the entity and remove it when necessary.
