0000132: Waypoints doesnt move with parented object/npc if this object/npc is spawned from a point_template
If you parent an info_waypoint with a brush/model/npc, and this is spawned from a point_template (or from a npc_maker), the waypoint will stay from it appeared, without moving. Doesnt matter if you delay activate it or if you activate it from a template like the rest.
Parent a waypoint with a npc.

Make the npc spawn using templates.
Also, although is not really a problem, you cant change the size of the waypoints. It will be always 64x64 (or 32x32, i´m not sure).
No tags attached.

That problem occurs when point_template entities are given the 'Preserve entity names' spawnflag (which happens by default). Simply uncheck the flag on the entity and it should work as intended, whether the object is a prop or an NPC.

It is a very different situation in the case of npc_template_maker entities. Resolving that would consume a fair amount of time (and perhaps even break existing maps due to the new input requirements), but you can easily work around that by using point_template entities instead (and not forgetting to ensure that the 'Template NPC' flag is _NOT_ checked on the NPC to be spawned).

It doesnt work. And unchecking Preserve entity names makes the func_tanks being idle, without activating and firing to the player.

I dont know what i just did, but after add the waypoints to the point_template and enable that spawnflag is now parented.

I thought it was common knowledge that all related parent entities need to be in the point_template as well.
