As an entity prefix, '''trigger''' entities are spatial volumes (in other words, brushed-based [[entity#Brush_entities|entities]]) which trigger [[output]]s depending on what touches them and how.

{{bug|Console command {{command|showtriggers_toggle}} doesn't show this entity.}}
 
The two most common triggers are:
*[[trigger_once]]
*[[trigger_multiple]]
Several other trigger entities [[:Category:CBaseTrigger|also exist]].
