Important:This entity stores values as strings, so if you specify one of the case as "1.50", then when you try to compare float it will not match, because the float will be "1.5", and not "1.50".

logic_case is a point entity available in all 
Source 2 games. It compares an input to up to 32 configured values, firing a corresponding output if there is a match (on InValue), or fires a random output (on PickRandom). Use logic_random_outputs for a weighted random output.
Important:This entity stores values as strings, so if you specify one of the case as "1.50", then when you try to compare float it will not match, because the float will be "1.5", and not "1.50".
Keyvalues
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentnameortarget).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
- Case 01 (Case01) to Case 32 (Case32) <string>
- The values to test against.
Inputs
- InValue <string>
- Compares the Input value to the case values, and fires the appropriate output, if any.
- PickRandom
- Fires a random OnCase output with at least one connection.
- PickRandomShuffle
- Fires a random OnCase output with at least one connection, with no repeats until all cases have been picked, at which point the shuffle starts over.
- ResetShuffle
- Starts the shuffle over so that the next PickRandomShuffle can select from all cases.
Outputs
- OnCase01 to OnCase32
- Fired when the input value equals the corresponding Case value.
- OnDefault
- Fired when the input value does not equal any of the Case values.
