Entity description

A brush entity that will move like a sliding door. For a door that pivots or rotates, use prop_door_rotating or func_door_rotating instead.

For having a prop based sliding door, make a prop_dynamic from the desired model and make its parent a little nodrawed func_door with a big negative lip.
