Info.png
This entity is not in the FGD by default .
It should not be put directly in a map.

player is a point entity available in all Source Source games. The player itself or a bot. NPCs are not players. This entity still exists even if the player is dead.

Note.pngNote:Keyvalues, inputs, outputs and Dimensions vary depending on game and engine version.[Clarify]

Split-arrows.png Split

It has been suggested that this article or section be split into multiple articles. (Discuss)

Tip.pngTip:In singleplayer, a pointer to the player can be acquired by using UTIL_GetLocalPlayer().
Note.pngNote:This is a preserved entity in Counter-Strike: SourceHalf-Life 2: DeathmatchDay of Defeat: SourcePortalTeam Fortress 2Left 4 DeadLeft 4 Dead 2Alien SwarmPortal 2Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
  • On a new round, its properties including its position will intentionally not reset. You can use logic_auto to emulate resetting it.
  • Killing it removes it forever, as it is not respawned on a new round.
  • It cannot be spawned with a point_template.
  • Parenting this with non preserved entities may have undesirable effects.

Limitations/Bugs

Icon-Important.pngImportant:This entity is not intended to be placed in a map manually. Doing so will result in an instant fatal error on map load!

Keyvalues

Note.pngNote:These keyvalues should be changed on a player with AddOutput.
Health (health) <integer>
The player's health.
Maximum Health (max_health) <integer>
The value of "health" cannot exceed this.
Collisions (solid) <choices>
Method of collision for the player.
Model Index (modelindex) <integer> (not in Team Fortress 2)
Changes the player's model to a precached model on the map.
Lighting Origin (LightingOrigin) <targetname>
Select an entity (not info_lighting!) from which to sample lighting instead of the entity's origin.
Lighting Origin Offset (LightingOriginHack) <targetname> (not in Left 4 Dead series)
The info_lighting_relative from which to sample lighting instead of the entity's origin.
Damage Filter Name (damagefilter) <targetname>
When this entity receives damage, it will filter by this entity.
Start Fade Distance (fademindist) <float>
Distance at which the entity starts fading. If <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit. The value will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.
End Fade Distance (fademaxdist) <float>
Distance at which the entity ends fading. If <0, the entity won't disappear at all. The value will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.
Fade Scale (fadescale) <float>
If specified in the worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8, entities will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives more control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the entity to fade out at further distances, and greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether. See also $noforcedfade.
Render Mode (rendermode) <choices>
Set a non-standard rendering mode on this entity.

  • 0: Normal
  • 1: Color
  • 2: Texture
  • 3: Glow

  • 5: Additive
  • 6: Removed, does nothing
  • 7: Additive Fractional Frame
  • 8: Alpha Add
  • 9: World Space Glow
  • 10: Don't Render
Render FX / Transparency (0 - 255) (renderamt) <integer>
Transparency amount, requires a Render Mode other than Normal. 0 is invisible, 255 is fully visible.
Render Color (R G B) (rendercolor) <color255>
Color tint.
Render FX (renderfx) <choices>
Various somewhat legacy alpha effects.

Maintain the same initial offset to this entity. An attachment point can also be used if separated by a comma at the end. (parentname [targetname],[attachment])

Base:
AddContext <string>
Adds to the entity's list of response contexts. See Context.
AddOutput <string>
Assigns a new keyvalue/output on this entity. For keyvalues, some rely on extra necessary code to be ran and won't work if its simply just changed through this input. There is a strict format that must be followed:
// Format of changing KeyValues: "AddOutput [key] [value]"
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,targetname new_name"

// Format of adding an Output: "AddOutput {targetname}:{inputname}:{parameter}:{delay}:{max times to fire, -1 means infinite}"
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:SetParent:!activator:0.0:-1"
// Arguments can be left blank, but the empty blank should still be contained.
//// Raw text:
"OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:ClearParent::0.0:-1"
ClearContext
Removes all contexts from this entity's list.
ClearParent
Removes this entity from the the movement hierarchy, leaving it free to move independently.
FireUser1 to FireUser4
Fires the respectiveOnUseroutputs; see User Inputs and Outputs.
Kill
Removes this entity and any entities parented to it from the world.
KillHierarchy
Functions the same as Kill, although this entity and any entities parented to it are killed on the same frame, being marginally faster thanKillinput.

Remove a context from this entity's list. The name should match the key of an existing context.
SetParent <string>
Move with this entity. See Entity Hierarchy (parenting).
SetParentAttachment <string>
Change this entity to attach to a specific attachment point on its parent. The entity will teleport so that the position of its root bone matches that of the attachment. Entities must be parented before being sent this input.
SetParentAttachmentMaintainOffset <string>

Dispatches a response to the entity. See Response and Concept.
DispatchEffect <string> (removed since Left 4 Dead) !FGD
Dispatches a special effect from the entity's origin; See also List of Client Effects. Replaced by the particle system since Left 4 Dead.

Execute a string of VScript source code in the scope of the entity receiving the input. String quotation may be needed when fired via console.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:In Hammer, using string arguments will corrupt the VMF file's structure, making the file unviewable for the next Hammer session.
Note.pngFix:Remove the string argument manually with a text editor.
Note.pngNote:Team Fortress 2 Backtick characters ` are replaced with quotation marks at runtime, allowing quotation marks to be used when normally not possible.
CallScriptFunction <string> (in all games since Left 4 Dead 2) (also in Team Fortress 2) !FGD
Calls a VScript function defined in the scope of the receiving entity.
TerminateScriptScope  (only in Team Fortress 2) !FGD

Sets the entity's lighting origin to use this entity's position.
SetLightingOriginHack <targetname> (removed since Left 4 Dead) Obsolete
Deprecated. Offsets the entity's lighting origin by their distance from an info_lighting_relative. Use SetLightingOrigin instead.
fademindist <float>
Sets distance at which the entity starts fading. If <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit. The value will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.
fademaxdist <float>
Sets distance at which the entity ends fading. If <0, the entity won't disappear at all. The value will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.
SetModelScale <vector> (only in Source 2013)
Multiplies the size of the model. Does not alter the physics collisions in most cases. Can take two values separated by a space, in which case the first value would be the target model scale and the second value would be the number of seconds the change in scale will be spread over. If there is no second value, the model will scale instantly.
Tip.pngTip:The modelscale keyvalue can be AddOutputed as a workaround for other games with this input missing.

OnKilled  (only in Left 4 Dead)
This output fires when the entity is killed and removed from the game.
Warning.pngWarning:Under no ideal circumstances can this output be useful on player entities, as sending Kill to players forces them into a glitchy state and causes unexpected problems, and by the time this output is fired the player is already removed with no way to bring them back.

Model:

OnIgnite  !FGD
Fired when the entity catches fire, such as from an env_entity_igniter or the Ignite inputs.
