I am new to scripting, but how do you get a Grunt to magicaly pop up out of mid air by walking into a certain area?

I had an idea of walking down a medium sized hall way and a grunt pop up out of mid air about 5 feet away from you and then disappear.

How do I do that?
All I know is set the Grunt to a poofer.
And set up an area close to where the Grunt is supposed to magicaly pop up.

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "PlayerCollide", "MonsterFunction", true, 1);
}
void MonsterFunction(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("enemy_suitor_malo_1", true);
ShowEnemyPlayerPosition("enemy_suitor_malo_1");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_1", 2, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_2", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_3", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_4", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_6", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("enemy_suitor_malo_1", "PathNodeArea_7", 0, "");
}

just change enemy_suitor_malo_1 name to name of your grunt ^^ hope i helped

as for an explanation. set a script area and rename it MonsterFunction, set grunt inactive and use the script above sorry not really good at explaining and ignore the pathnodes if you just want him to pop up and dissapear
