Math counter

Entity Description

A useful entity that can store and track a value. It can trigger on maximum or minimum values or output its value directly. It also has the ability to perform simple mathmatics functions. Just dont fall asleep counting the sheep.

Keyvalues

• Template:Kv targetname

• startvalue

<integer> The number the math_counter starts with.

• min

<integer> Minimum legal value for the counter. If min and max are zero, no clamping is performed.

• max

<integer> Maximum legal value for the counter. If min and max are zero, no clamping is performed.

Inputs

• Kill

Removes this entity from the world.

• KillHierarchy

Removes this entity and all its children from the world.

• AddOutput <string>

Adds an entity I/O connection to this entity. Format: <output name> <targetname>:<inputname>:<parameter>:<delay>:<max times to fire (-1 == infinite)>. Very dangerous, use with care.

• FireUser1-4

Causes this entity's OnUser1-4 outputs to be fired. See User Inputs and Outputs.

• Add <integer>

Adds the given value to the math_counter's value.

• Subtract <integer>

Subtracts the given value from the math_counter's value.

• Multiply <integer>

Multiplies the the math_counter's value by the given value.

• Divide <integer>

Divides the the math_counter's value by the given value.

• SetHitMax <integer>

Changes the Maximum Legal Value to the given value.

• SetHitMin <integer>

Changes the Minimum Legal Value to the given value.

• SetValue <integer>

Changes the math_counter's value to the given value.

• SetValueNoFire <integer>

Changes the math_counter's value to the given value, but doesn't update the change to any other entities.

Outputs

• Template:O targetname

• OutValue

Simply sends out the math_counter's value as though it were typed into the the parameter overide field. Usefull in conjunction with logic_case or func_movelinear. The change is outputed each time the value changes unless the SetValueNoFire is used.

• OnHitMax

When the Maximum Legal Value is reach this output will be sent. In order to trigger it again you will need to alter the value first.

• OnHitMin

When the Minimum Legal Value is reach this output will be sent. In order to trigger it again you will need to alter the value first.
