Template:Base point It is a dynamic connection between two navigation nodes.

You specify the node IDs of the start and end nodes, and then you can use entity Inputs and Outputs to turn on and off the connection. This could be used to create or destroy a connection in the nodegraph because of some event in your map (a bridge being created/destroyed, etc).

Keyvalues

Start node ID ([todo internal name (i)]) <node_dest>
The node ID of one end of the node connection.
End node ID ([todo internal name (i)]) <node_dest>
The node ID of one end of the node connection.
Initial State ([todo internal name (i)]) <choices>
  • 0 : Off
  • 1 : On
Type of Connection ([todo internal name (i)]) <choices>
  • 1 : Ground
  • 2 : Jump
  • 4 : Fly
  • 8 : Climb
Allow Pass When Off ([todo internal name (i)]) <string>
Entity or class to allow passage even when node is off
Invert exclusion rules ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
Allowed entity is the only entity NOT allowed when this is set to 'yes'
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.
