logic_lineto is a logical entity available in all Source games. It calculates and outputs a vector from one entity to another.

Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]: The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report. See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities

Start entity (source) <targetname>: Name of the entity the line should start from.

End entity (target) <targetname>: Name of the entity that line should end at.

Line <vectorRedirectOutput/Vector>: !activator = !caller = this entity
Fired when the vector, from the start entity to the end entity, changes. Passes along the vector as a parameter.; See also: See entities that have an input of Vector type
