Probably just by looking at the sdk source code to see what stuff is handled in cl_dll (client side) verses dlls (server side) and, of course, game_shared (for things that run on both the client and the server). Looking at the source code is the best way to understand how things should be done.

I've been able to get a fully working headcrab in a multiplayer mod (basically copied the npc_headcrab code and spent a while trimming it until it compiled). As it stands right now, *everything* is done on the server side, which isn't exactly optimal.

Re: [hlcoders] Multiplayer NPCs
How do you know it's not exactly optimal? Have you done testing? You have to think of what can be done clientside. Obviously you want all logic and movement to be on serverside. So that leaves very little to client-side aside from FX, sounds and death effects.
