Availability

Keyvalues

  • TriggerOnce:

Filter Name <targetname>
Filter to use to see if activator triggers me. See filter_activator_name for details.

Origin:

Parentname:

Warning:See the warning under Counter-Strike Round Restarts before using the Parent field in CS:S.
Note:If a trigger does not start out with a parent, but rather gets one during run-time, this value should be set to a static entity. This is so the entity's solidity is set to VPhysics rather than BSP.
