What's the difference? You can place entities deactivated, then activate specific entity you want to create at that area.
Wiki has something for this.
Code:
void CreateEntityAtArea(string& asEntityName, string& asEntityFile, string& asAreaName, bool abFullGameSave);
Creates an entity at an area.
asEntityName - internal name
asEntityFile - entity to be used + extension .ent
asAreaName - the area to create the entity at
abFullGameSave - determines whether an entity “remembers” its stateRE: a question... - Danny Boy - 05-26-2011

well do you remenber that one time i asked you at youtube how did you made the bilboard disapear from the flash light? but you said it wouldn't work the same way whit a monster? well this is kinda a way to go around that problem... or do you rather see some glowing eyes float in the nothing?

Hmm. I still have some floating billboards. Did you find a workaround?
