Chicken

Chicken since 2021-05-03.

Chicken before 2021-05-03.

chicken is a point entity available in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

Entity Description

This is an animated chicken. It moves around and plays some sounds by itself.

• A player can +use it to make it follow him. The "owner" is notified in the chat if his chicken dies.
• It is normally spawned with pet_entity, but directly placing this entity will not require a Navigation Mesh.
• If this entity is killed, it will not respawn, even between rounds. Use pet_entity to get around this.
• Chickens spawn independently around the map in the deathmatch game mode.

Parentname:

Parent (parentname) <targetname>

Specifies a movement parent. An entity will maintain its initial offset from its parent. An attachment point can be added to the end of the name, separated by a comma.

Global:

Global Entity Name (globalname) <string>

Name by which this entity is linked to another entity in a different map. When the player transitions to a new map, entities in the new map with globalnames matching entities in the previous map will have the previous map's state copied over their state.

Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) (angles) <QAngle>

This entity's orientation in the world. Pitch is rotation around the Y axis, yaw is the rotation around the Z axis, roll is the rotation around the X axis.

Health:

Strength/Health (health) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>

Health of the chicken

Maximum Health (max_health) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>

Health cannot exceed this amount.

Min Damage to Hurt (minhealthdmg) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>

If a single hit to the object doesn't do at least this much damage, the chicken won't take any of the damage it attempted to give.

Damage Filter Name (damagefilter) ([todo internal name (i)]) <targetname>

When this entity receives damage, it will filter by this entity.

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 ), 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.
