_firesmoke is a point entity available in all Source games. This is the group of particle effects created by an env_fire, including the flames. It does no damage. If a fire shouldn't damage things, or is unable to, this entity could be used directly to save an edict. env_fire does however allow much more control over the flame.

Important:Since , this entity does not precache the fire assets on its own, so it won't be visible unless at least one env_fire exists elsewhere in the map. The fire sprites are properly precached in and .
