Base boss

Template:Entity It is the entity that the tank_boss entity uses as a base and thus shares a lot of its behaviors. A few examples include:

• Crushes engineer buildings that collide with it
• TFBots treat this entity as an enemy
• Drops currency pack on death
• Plays sounds to client when it gets damaged

base_boss itself was originally intended for the now-scrapped Raid gamemode. By itself, it is static and does not perform anything; however, it is still of use in setting up a custom hitbox for any custom static NPC bosses.

In code, it is represented by theCTFBaseBossclass, defined in thetf_base_boss.cppfile.
