Wheatley on one of his monitors.

Monitors are used mainly in the Wheatley theme where Wheatley can be displayed. They are easy to make with func_instance.

Creating monitors with func_instance

Step 1

Create a func_instance entity using the entity tool. Set its VMF filename to instances\monitors\wheatley_bigscreen.vmf. Set its fix-up name to wheatley_monitor_1. Use the clipping tool to create an opening for the monitor and move it into position.

Step 2

Create another func_instance. Set its VMF filename to instances\monitors\wheatley_studio.vmf. Place it outside your map.

Step 3

Create one more func_instance with the VMF <instances\choreo\glados_gen_actor.vmf. To make Wheatley speak, fire an output like this:

	My Output	Target Entity	Target Input	Parameter	Delay	Only Once
	OnTrigger	@glados	RunScriptCode	laser_catapult_test_start()	0.00	No
