- 1-8 units from the surface the portal is to be placed on.
- At least 57 units away from any adjacent surfaces on the top and bottom.
- Todo: Find minimum distance that adjacent surfaces can be on sides (probably slightly less than 32).
Keyvalues
- Activated ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
- Is this portal activated at start?
Bug:In Portal 2, this will cause the portal to appear at the world origin. [todo tested in ?]
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentnameortarget).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
- Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) (angles) <QAngle>
- This entity's orientation in the world. Pitch is rotation around the Y axis, yaw is the rotation around the Z axis, roll is the rotation around the X axis.
Inputs
- SetName
- Naming your portals is fun
- SetActivatedState <boolean>
- Set Activated
- Fizzle
- Fizzle and remove
- NewLocation <string>
- Sets this portals location and angles. This expects 6 floats with space delimiters, the format is 'x y z pitch yaw roll'
- Resize <string> (in all games since

Outputs
- OnPlacedSuccessfully
- Fired when portal spawns successfully
