Entity Description

Health Vial

This item restores a smaller amount of health points for players on pickup. This amount is defined by the sk_healthvial value - 10 by default.

Dedicated Console Variables

  • sk_healthvial (Default: 10)
<integer> Amount of health restored. (This amount is unaffected by difficulty settings.)

Keyvalues

  • Targetname:

Name <string>
The targetname other entities refer to this entity by.
  • Angles:

Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) <angle>
This entity's angular orientation in the world.
  • Shadow:

Disable shadows <bool>
Prevent the entity from creating cheap render-to-texture shadows. Does not affect shadow mapping.
  • fademindist
<float> Distance at which the prop starts to fade (<0 = use fademaxdist). If 'Screen Space Fade' is selected, this represents the number of pixels wide covered by the prop when it starts to fade.
  • fademaxdist
<float> Maximum distance at which the prop is visible (0 = don't fade out). If 'Screen Space Fade' is selected, this represents the *minimum* number of pixels wide covered by the prop when it fades.
  • fadescale
<float> If you specify a fade in the worldspawn, or if the engine is running under dx7, then the engine will forcibly fade out props even if fademindist/fademaxdist isn't specified. This scale factor gives you some control over the fade. Using 0 here turns off the forcible fades.
