attach1 <targetname>
attach2 <targetname>: The entities to constrain. Leave one blank to attach to the constraint entity itself.
constraintsystem <targetname>: A phys_constraintsystem that this constraint should be a part of. This avoids the "jiggling" caused by constraints applied to the same set of entities fighting with each other.
forcelimit <float>: Impact force required to break the constraint, in pounds. A way of calculating this is to set it to the mass of an object that would break the constraint if it were resting on its objects.
torquelimit <float>: Torque required to break the constraint, in pounds*inches. A way of calculating this is to multiply any reference mass by the resting distance (from the center of mass of the object) needed to break the constraint.
breaksound <sound>: A sound played when the constraint is broken.
teleportfollowdistance <float>: If one constrained object teleports more than this many units away, the other will teleport with it.

Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]: The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report. See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
