Template:L4d series point This class is the same as prop_physics, but with special outputs used specifically for a car alarm, to be used with Prop_car_glass for its glass.
This entity can sense people firing their weapons next to it and has outputs for that event. It will call a panic event the moment it's assigned model is touched or damaged, but then it will stop functioning like a car alarm and will effectively just be a prop_physics
Note:The Enable/Disable inputs will disable or enable the ability to trigger alarms. However, the Prop_car_glass entity that goes along with this car will not be affected by this and needs to be disabled separately, by swapping it with a generic prop_dynamic using default glass version for this car, which does not blink.Tip:By default the alarm sounds for about 30 seconds, then fires the OnCarAlarmEnd Output. You can make this time longer by instead using an OnCarAlarmStart output which fires a relay after X amount of seconds, which will then fire whatever outputs OnCarAlarmEnd was firing.Keyvalues
Note:Page left for viewable history, content moved to prop_physicsRenderFields:
- Render Mode (rendermode) <byte choices>
- Set a non-standard rendering mode on this entity.
Render Modes - 0: Normal
- 1: Color
- 2: Texture
- 3: Glow
- 4: Solid/Alphatest
- 5: Additive
- 6: Removed, does nothing
- 7: Additive Fractional Frame
- 8: Alpha Add
- 9: World Space Glow
- 10: Don't Render
- Render FX (renderfx) <byte choices>
- Various somewhat legacy alpha effects. See render effects.
- Render Amount / Transparency (renderamt) <byte>
- Transparency amount, requires a Render Mode other than Normal. 0 is invisible, 255 is fully visible.
- Render Color (R G B) (rendercolor) <color255>
- Color tint.
- Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enableinput).
Flags
Note:Page left for viewable history, content moved to prop_physicsInputs
- Ignite
- Ignite, burst into flames.
- IgniteLifetime <float>
Ignitewith the given lifetime.Todo: Before the flames extinguish, or before health reaches zero?
- IgniteNumHitboxFires <integer>
Ignitewith the given number of hitbox fires.
- IgniteHitboxFireScale <float>
Ignitewith the given hitbox fire scale.
Note:Page left for viewable history, content moved to prop_physicsRenderFields:
- Alpha <integer 0–255>
- Sets the entity's transparency to a number from 0 (invisible) to 255 (fully visible). Requires the entity to have its
rendermodeset to a number other than0.
- Color <color255>
- Sets an RGB color for the entity.
EnableDisable:
- Enable / Disable
- Enable/disable this entity from performing its task. It might also disappear from view.
Outputs
- OnCarAlarmStart
- Car alarm should go off
- OnCarAlarmEnd
- Car alarm has shut off
- OnCarAlarmChirpStart
- Warning chirp starts
- OnCarAlarmChirpEnd
- Warning chirp stopped
