Logic measure movement

Entity description

It can measure the movement of an entity relative to another entity and apply that movement to a third entity.

Note:Useful for simulating motion outside of the hierarchy system.

Compare with phys_constraint.

Warning:Does not properly update collision physics on the object being moved.

Keyvalues

Entity to Measure ([todo internal name (i)]) <targetname>

Entity whose movement you want to measure.

Measure Reference ([todo internal name (i)]) <targetname>

The movement of Entity to Measure will be measured relative to this entity.

Entity to Move ([todo internal name (i)]) <targetname>

This entity will be moved to mimic the motions of Entity to Measure.

Movement Reference ([todo internal name (i)]) <targetname>

The Entity to Move will move relative to this entity.

Movement scale ([todo internal name (i)]) <float>

A scale to divide the measured movements by, before applying those movements to the Entity to Move.
1 = target entity moves as much as the measured entity,
2 = target entity moves half as far as the measured entity, and
0.5 = target entity moves twice as far as the measured entity.

Measurement Type ([todo internal name (i)]) <choices>

What to measure.

• 0 : Position
• 1 : Eye position

Name (targetname) <string>

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.
