CEnvWeaponfire ↳CPointEntity ↳CBaseEntity

Template:L4d series point This entity is used to mimic weapon fire from the guns in L4D. It does damage, muzzle flash, tracers, and impact effects. While it is great for intro cinematics, the entity is not 100% faithful to L4D weapon behavior (shots don't penetrate multiple zombies, for example). All effects are done client side, and so bandwidth usage is pretty low but it isn't perfectly in-sync with the server-side damage calculation.
