Just a quick little question. What is the name and location of the instance used for underground paint droppers? Does one even exist? If not, has anyone made one?

I did not found any instance but the world model underground_paint_dropper (i think it was...) has different skins for different colors. So you could just create an instance and share it with us

I have an instance, but I don't know where it's from or who made it. I think it's from the source code to some level. And I expect that the author wouldn't want it redistributed, sorry.

But it's actually really simple: a prop_static, and an info_paint_sprayer.

I've got one that I made for my PeTI Style Changer mod, but it's designed for PeTI, so it's a lot more complicated than it needs to be. It's probably easier just to make your own.

Felix griffin kinda said this, but... its extremely simple, make a prop_dynamic (maybe static will work), and find the model. Then just throw in an info_paint_sprayer and adjust the keyvalues. Adjust the skin to change the color.
