DM doesn't support NPCs.
I've tried the zombie before and got the same result as you, I tried a barnacle once and it didn't crash, but it wouldn't pick me up or anything. That's how I figured out NPCs don't work.

You'd have to mod it somehow.

You need a modified .fgd for that, otherwise Hammer won't support it.

In deathmatch, there are no bots, so there's no need for AI, so there is no AI. Without the AI, the NPCs won't know what to do.

The other reason NPCs don't work in deathmatch is because the game will crash if you kill four of them. It's something about an overload on ragdolls. Try looking at one of the websites for a js_ server, they'll probably have some links for you to follow.
Also change the texture of the dock. Docks are rarely tile. -Facepunch
