{{lang|MoveType}}
''MoveType'' defines the way entity behaves and moves. For example <code>movetype 0</code> will freeze the entity and nothing can affect it until its ''MoveType'' is changed.

{{warning|Most of these ''MoveTypes'' are called by the engine, safe ones to use are: '''0, 2, 4, 5, 8'''.}}

{{tip|In {{as}}{{tf2}} or later, you can test these out in game with console command <code>ent_fire player AddOutput "MoveType #"</code> where ''#'' is a number from table below.}}
