prop_physics_multiplayer is a model entity available in all 
Source games. It is identical to prop_physics except that it bounces away from collision (if sv_turbophysics is enabled), which helps to avoid the prediction errors that normal physics objects typically generate, and that physics mode can be changed.
Important:This can create a clientside physical prop which cannot be controlled via I/O, vscript or picked up and doesn't count towards server entity limits other than for a moment during spawning.Warning:Don't use in singleplayer where save/load is available. It is not saved into a save file.Note:Behavior observed in : when this entity is clientside and other non-clientside prop_physics with same model exists even if inside a template then this entity will respawn at its original position during save load.AltNames: In Left 4 Dead series, this entity is also tied to prop_physics. CPhysicsPropMultiplayer doesn't seem to be present and physicsmode keyvalue works when used on prop_physics Keyvalues
- Physics Mode (physicsmode) <choices>
- Sets the physics mode used by the prop.
- 0: "Auto Detect"
- 1: "Solid, Server-side"
- 2: "Non-Solid, Server-side"
- 3: "Non-Solid, Client-side"
Note:Other Keyvalues / Inputs / Outputs are same as prop_physics.See also
- prop_data
- Prop Types Overview
- Alternate Multiplayer Physics - an article on modifying the source code to this entity.
