point_anglesensor is a point entity available in all 
Source games.
It detects whether another entity points in a given direction for a period of time.
KeyValues
- 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
- Target Entity Name (target) <targetname>
- Name of the entity whose angles will be sensed.
- Look At Entity (lookatname) <targetname>
- The entity we want to check to see if the Target Entity is looking at.
- Duration (duration) <float>
- The amount of time the Target Entity must look at the 'Look at Entity' to trigger this entity, in seconds.
- Tolerance (tolerance) <integer>
- The tolerance, in degrees, in the checking to determine when the Target Entity is looking at the Look At Entity.
- Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enableinput).
Flags
- Use target entity's angles (NOT position) : [1]
Inputs
- Toggle
- Toggle the sensor between enabled and disabled.
- Test
- Check to see if the Target Entity is facing the Look At Entity within the specified tolerance, firing either the
OnFacingLookatorOnNotFacingLookatoutput based on the result.
EnableDisable:
- Enable / Disable
- Enable/disable this entity from performing its task. It might also disappear from view.
Outputs
- TargetDir <vector>
- Fired when the forward direction of the Target Entity changes. Passes the new forward direction as a parameter.
- OnFacingLookat
- Fired when the Target Entity points at the Look At Entity for more than the specified Duration, or in response to a
Testinput.
- OnNotFacingLookat
- Fires in response to a
Testinput when the Target Entity is not pointing at the Look At Entity.
- FacingPercentage <float>
- Normalized value (0..1) where 1 is facing directly at target and 0 is at or beyond the angle of tolerance.
