The MvM tank.
Tank falling through a grating (gif, needs to be opened to show)

Team Fortress 2 tank_boss is a point entity available in Team Fortress 2 Team Fortress 2.

Icon-Bug.pngBug:If there are no path_tracks present in the map, the game will crash.  [todo tested in ?]
Icon-Bug.pngBug:Tanks pass through any walls with a transparent texture (grates, glass, etc.) or tool textures but not tools/toolsblack, tools/toolsnodraw and tools/toolsskybox. Tying the wall into an entity doesn't prevent this. (Except for func_detail.)  [todo tested in ?]
C++ In code, it is represented by theCTFTankBossclass, defined in thetf_tank_boss.cppfile.

Entity description

The tank deploying its bomb at the hatch.

The tank used in Mann vs Machine missions. When spawned in by a popfile, it will start at the path_track entity specified by the popfile and continue until it reaches the end of the path, where it will deploy the bomb. When destroyed, it creates a tank_destruction entity.

Note.pngNote:When spawned using ent_create, the tank will attempt to travel in a straight line toward the bomb hatch from the point it was spawned at.

Keyvalues

Health ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>
Health of the tank.
Model ([todo internal name (i)]) <string>
Model the tank uses.
Speed ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>
Speed the tank travels at, higher speeds can cause the tank to clip through geometry.
Start Disabled ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
Start disabled.
TeamNum ([todo internal name (i)]) <choices>
Team.

BaseFadeProp:

Start Fade Dist (fademindist) <float>
Distance at which the entity starts to fade.
End Fade Dist (fademaxdist) <float>
Max fade distance at which the entity is visible.
  • If start fade is <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit.
  • If end fade is <0, the entity won't disappear at all. (This is the default behavior.)
The values will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.
Fade Scale (fadescale) <float>
If you specify so in worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8 (DX7 in Source 2006), props will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives you some control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, while those greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether. See also the QC command $noforcedfade.
