Summary0003308: Targets of worldspawn are triggered in frame 0, but their script objects are initialized later
DescriptionIn case of entities with script objects, targeting them from worldspawn at map start does not work. A light f.i. that starts on, and should be turned off, stays on.

The reason is that the triggering happens in frame 0, bevore the script object is initialized. It later initializes the light again to be on based on the spawnargs.
Steps To ReproduceTarget atdm:lamp_electric_grill_lit from worldspawn.
Additional InformationThis can be fixed in two ways:

Toggling a light on/off can change the spawnargs, so the later init() call in tdm_light_holder will do the right thing.

Alternatively, we could delay the targeting from worldspawn by 1 or 2 frames.
TagsNo tags attached.

If anyone thinks it's important to fix this for 2.0, or is volunteering to do so, please speak up now; otherwise I'll remove it from the roadmap for 2.0.

I took a look at this, and can't duplicate the problem.

I targeted a lit light from worldspawn, and it was off when the map started. Looking in the code, I can see that worldspawn triggers its targets in frame 0.

When I hit a button that also targets the light, the light turns on and off normally.

So I don't know what the problem is. Perhaps tels already fixed it.
