point_broadcastclientcommand is a logical entity available in all Source games since Left 4 Dead. It's an entity that issues commands to each valid client's console, as if it was typed in by that player locally.

Tip:In other VScript supported titles where this entity is not available, you can use the following entity script inside a point_clientcommand

function BroadcastCommand(command) {
    for(local player; player = Entities.FindByClassname(player, "player"); ) {
        EntFire("!self", "Command", command, 0, player);
    }
}

and run the function via clientcommand_name RunScriptCode BroadcastCommand(`console_command_here`)

Keyvalues
