Prop physics override

prop_physics_override is an e0 available in all Source games. A prop type that will override the properties built into its model, making it work like a prop_physics entity. The health of props can also be overridden by using this entity.

Note:Models must have a collision wireframe, or they will not work. If you intend to use a collision-less model as a physics object, make it a prop_dynamic and parent it to a func_physbox

Generally, if a prop_physics in your map has been removed because its model wasn't meant to be a physics prop, you can use this entity to still make it a prop_physics, without any drawbacks.

Although this entity provides the freedom of turning any prop into a physics prop, be aware of that players will rely on the behavior of props to be more or less consistent with other maps, and even other Source games.
