Team

Stub

This article or section is a stub. You can help by expanding it.

Every entity has a team property but it's mostly relevant for players and NPCs. It can affect appearances or other behaviors of players. Material proxies can be used to render a texture only for some teams. (List of material proxies)

Below are examples of other entities where team alignment affects their behaviour:

• func_simpleladder in determines which team can climb it
• other examples^[Todo]

Changing team

• SetTeam input - available to all entities
• teamnumber keyvalue (in all games since Alien Swarm) and (also in Team Fortress 2 branch)
• TeamNum input/keyvalue - sets so called "initial" team, not the team itself, which sets the entity's actual team when the entity is spawned (even when loading from save file)

Note:All these Inputs/Keyvalues use integers
