All entities must have a targetname. In the program, the base entity from which all other entities are derived (CBaseEntity) has a targetname. The only entities that should be listed here are pseudo-entities like prop_static that are removed by the compiler. The FGD is sometimes accidentally or intentionally incomplete. --DeathByNukes 06:46, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
