I think it would be good if you could make copies of an NPC this way, or at least have some way of copying NPCs.
My problem is that I'm trying to make a lift/carry/throw system that relies more on the system weapons than the NPC itself.
I need some way to tell the NPC to respawn--

either to send a message to the NPC to hide a specified amount of time
(since you can't tell an NPC to show once it's hidden, nor would using sleep in the weapon be very efficient).
-or-
simply destroy the NPC and put a copy of it that reappears in a specified amount of time, which would be much less efficient than the prior.

If there's any way to do this through a weapon already, please inform me. My goal is to not have to join the npc to any classes.
