It spawns a specified point_template entity at the env_entity_maker's origin. It can be set to spawn automatically or through inputs.


Flags

Enable AutoSpawn Spawn template whenever there's enough room to fit it, and the player is not looking. : [1]
AutoSpawn
Wait for entity to be destroyed. : [2]
AutoSpawn
Spawn even if the player is looking. : [4]
ForceSpawn
Spawn only if there's enough room to fit the object. : [8]
ForceSpawn
Spawn only if the player isn't looking. : [16]

Keyvalues

Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.
See also:  Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities

Point_template To Spawn (EntityTemplate) <targetname>
Name of the point_template to spawn here. If there is an offset between the point_template and its spawned entities in hammer, that offset will be maintained when spawning happens relative to the env_entity_maker.
PostSpawn Movement Speed (PostSpawnSpeed) <float>
All entities spawned will move this many hammer units per second in the direction of PostSpawn Movement Direction.
PostSpawn Movement Direction (PostSpawnDirection) <angle>
If a PostSpawn Movement Speed is specified, this angle will be added to the movement direction of all the entities created by the template.
PostSpawn Direction Variance (PostSpawnDirectionVariance) <float>
The PostSpawn Movement Direction may vary by this many degrees. This is a radius.
PostSpawn Inherit Angles (PostSpawnInheritAngles) <boolean>
If checked, uses the parent's forward vector as the spawn direction. Otherwise uses the env_entity_maker's forward.

Inputs

ForceSpawn
Spawn an instance of the template at this origin and angle.
ForceSpawnAtEntityOrigin <targetname>
Spawn an instance of the template at the same origin and angles as a specified entity.

Outputs

OnEntitySpawned
Fired when an instance of the entity template has been spawned.
OnEntityFailedSpawn
Fired when a ForceSpawn input failed to spawn the template, either due to lack of space or being in player's view, depending on the spawnflags.
