They will not play any audio when spawned in or added to a map manually. This is because they lack an associated [[updateitem1]], which stores data that this entity needs to play its sounds. Simply adding an updateitem1 will not fix this, however, as it has to be linked to that specific entity. Also, it is not possible to link an updateitem2 to an updateitem1 outside of the source code. This is because they are created entirely inside the source code, dynamically added to the maps depending on if the player has beaten the game or not.

This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it can only be configured through code.
