Template:Entity Deprecated entity during the development of Half-Life 2, it's sole difference compared to other entities is that a OnUse output exists.
Note:The brush is fully solid unlike other trigger entities.Note:Use func_button instead, it behaves like trigger_brush but is more likely to work on any version of source.Note:The player events (such as game_playerdie) are useable by all entities and not just by this entity, despite common misconception. The list of those is now available on the Targetname page. In code, it is represented by theCTriggerBrushclass, defined in themodelentities.cppfile.
Keyvalues
- Ignore flags (InputFilter) <integer>
- Flags of things to ignore: players = 1, npcs = 2, pushables = 4, touch = 8, use = 16, all = 32
- Don't alert parent (DontMessageParent) <boolean>
- Decides whether to forward OnStartTouch, OnEndTouch outputs or Use input to parented entity
- 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
Inputs
EnableDisable:
- Enable / Disable
- Enable/disable this entity from performing its task. It might also disappear from view.
- Use
- Fires the OnUse output.
Outputs
- OnUse
- Fired when the
Useinput is given.
- OnStartTouch
- Fired when an entity starts touching this trigger. The touching entity must pass this trigger's filters to cause this output to fire.
- OnEndTouch
- Fired when an entity stops touching this trigger. Only entities that passed this trigger's filters will cause this output to fire.
