Available in Left 4 Dead Left 4 Dead 2 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Team Fortress 2. It is a brush entity that can block nav areas touching its AABB used to restrict NPCs from crossing over nav areas.

Todo: Any other games?
Todo: Use templates to display which games include this entity. (But how would we accomplish this?)
Note.pngNote:The entity will NOT start to block automatically: it must first be activated with the BlockNav input.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:Left 4 Dead 2 For navigation squares touching your func_nav_blocker, UnblockNav along with BlockNav must be sent if prop_door_rotating, func_physbox, etc. resides on the same squares. Else the console error "Area navsquare#[ID] already blocked by a different team id. May produce flow bugs" (Which it does). You can quickly access the faulty nav square by usingnav_mark [ID]followed by nav_warp_to_mark.   [todo tested in ?]

Keyvalues

Team(s) to block (teamToBlock) <choices>
Team this entity should block.
  • -1 : Everyone
    Warning.pngWarning:Team Fortress 2 for everyone either edit FGD and use value -2 or turn off smart edit and set that, -1 is not valid and the nav blocker will not work
  • 2 : Red Team Fortress 2, Survivors Left 4 Dead seriesLeft 4 Dead series, Terrorists Counter-Strike: Source Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
  • 3 : Blue Team Fortress 2, Infected Left 4 Dead seriesLeft 4 Dead series, Counter-Terrorists Counter-Strike: Source Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Note.pngNote:Counter-Strike: Global Offensive teamToBlock non-functional, always blocks either for both teams or for no team.
Affects Flow? (affectsFlow) <boolean> (only in Left 4 Dead 2)
Does this Nav Blocker block flow in the level? Only Nav Blocker with this enabled will cause flow recomputation on blocking/unblocking.
Icon-Important.pngImportant:When this is true don't block the only path to the level's goal with it or the flow won't be computed properly
