I can`t see the wood because of the trees (german adage)  Following statement doesn`t work, beacuse enemy_distance get not counted up. But I don`t know why. There must be a very basic mistake in my thoughts. Ditje
...
var enemy_distance = 2;
...
// Welle 1
var i;
for(i=1; i<9; i++)
{
if(enemy_distance >= 2)
{
if(i %2 == 0)
{
enemy[i] = ent_create("bee2.mdl", vector(-50, 1000, 500), start_bee_wave1);
enemy_distance = 0;
}
else
{
enemy[i] = ent_create("bee1.mdl", vector(-50, 1000, 500), start_bee_wave1);
enemy_distance = 0;
}
}
else enemy_distance += time_step;
}
...
wait(1);
...
Edit: if I remove wait(1) - I get entities until crash. I create more entities by this loops(9-40). The ent_create functions of this entities don`t call a function yet and their loops work fine.
for(i=9; i<17; i++)
{
if(i %2 == 0) enemy[i] = ent_create("bee2.mdl", vector(epos[i][0], -epos[i][1], epos[i][2]), NULL);
else ent_create("capture.mdl", vector(epos[i][0], -epos[i][1], epos[i][2]), NULL);
}

What is it you are "trying" to do?
This broken code makes no sense to me.
Why is the "enemy_distance += time_step;" in the "else" section?
Because of this, and the "var enemy_distance = 2;",
enemy_distance never get incremented, because the "else" never gets triggered.

Why should else not get triggered? When I create create an ENTITY enemy_distance gets set to 0 and 0 is smaller than 2  But I am proud to annouce that I found a solution and reached my target.  Code for creating all enemies is now decreased from 138 lines to 45 lines. Thanks an cheers Ditje

Doh! Sorry. My bad. Was too tired and missed the obvious.
Good work on finding it yourself!
