− | '''Spawn''' (also known as ''Tarbabies'' or ''blobs'') are annoying little blue blobs that bounce around, ricochet off walls, and hurt you if they smack into you. They don't take long to kill, so don't fire at them unless you're at a safe distance. When they die, they explode like a rocket - and hurt just as badly. They will come after you pretty quickly, so back up as fast as you can and fire once you know you're safe. Don't bother strafing, as they have to be near you to hurt you.

− | ====FGD Definition====
| |
− | This is the format used by [[TrenchBroom]] and [[Worldcraft]]. Note that the model(...) parameter is not supported by Worldcraft. This does not include the Monster base class definition, which is also required.

| |
− | @PointClass base(Monster) size(-16 -16 -24, 16 16 40) model(":progs/enforcer.mdl")

| |
− | | |
− | ====DEF Definition====
| |
− | This is the definition format used for most old Quake editors, including the original [[QuakeEd]].
| |
− | <pre>
| |
− | /*QUAKED monster_tarbaby (1 0 0) (-16 -16 -24) (16 16 40) Ambush
| |
− | */

− | ==Trivia==
| |
− | * The spawn was previously known as the Vomitus, because it was originally going to vomit at you. The bouncing was determined to be scarier, so the name changed. There are still references to the monster_vomitus in the QuakeC.<ref>John Romero on Twitter https://twitter.com/romero/status/597079711341158400</ref>
| |
− | * "They had been created by Adrian Carmack in response to the imagery of the Formless Spawn in my printed Monster Guide. No one else was using them, so I felt obliged to do so."<ref>Sandy Petersen on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/3t1obw/sandy_petersen_designer_of_cthulhu_wars_doom_call/cx2dub6</ref>
