Outputs

OnStartTouch

!activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger.

OnStartTouchAll

!activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger, and no other entities are touching it. If there are any other entities touching the trigger when a new one begins to touch, only OnStartTouch will fire.

OnEndTouch

!activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity stops touching this trigger.

Note:Will also fire for entities touching it when trigger is disabled via Disable input

Warning:This includes entities which are deleted while inside the trigger. In this case !activator will be invalid.

Warning:OnEndTouch can fire before OnStartTouch under certain circumstances^[How?] where both are fired on the same tick and each have the same delay.

Fix:Add a slight delay to OnEndTouch.

OnEndTouchAll

!activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when all valid entities stop touching this trigger.

OnTouching  (in all games since )

!activator = !caller = this entity
Fired if something is currently touching this trigger when TouchTest is fired.

OnNotTouching  (in all games since )

!activator = !caller = this entity
Fired if nothing is currently touching this trigger when TouchTest is fired.

|}

• Template:L4D add

Fired when all members of a team start touching this trigger.
