Template:Base point It is a message forwarder. It can be used to fire many outputs at once from just one input, or, by being disabled, to break an I/O chain. It can also be very helpful for organization and keeping you from having to edit MANY instances of the same outputs, as opposed to just one.
Confirm:This entity is crucial to use when using more than 5 outputs/inputs, otherwise the game will get the delays wrong/not out/input all of them.Keyvalues
- 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
- Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enableinput).
Flags
- 1: Only trigger once
- 2: Allow fast retrigger (otherwise there is a minimum delay of 0.001 seconds)
Inputs
- Trigger
- Trigger the relay, causing its OnTrigger output to fire if it is enabled.
- Toggle
- Toggle the relay between enabled and disabled.
- CancelPending
- Cancel any events fired by this relay that are currently pending in the I/O event queue.
- EnableRefire
- Allows a slow trigger to fire again. (See the second flag)
EnableDisable:
- Enable / Disable
- Enable/disable this entity from performing its task. It might also disappear from view.
Outputs
- OnSpawn
- Fired when the relay is spawned. If the relay is set to only trigger once, it will delete itself after firing this output. Confirm:Wouldn't logic_auto be more appropriate?
- OnTrigger
- Fired when the relay is triggered. If the relay is set to only trigger once, it will delete itself after firing this output.
