Player (Alien Swarm): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:59, 16 April 2025

This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it can only be configured through code.

`asw_player.cpp`

player is an entity available in Alien Swarm and Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop. The actual entity the player controls and walk around with is asw_marine.

Important:This is a preserved entity.
If the game has round restart mechanics this entity may not behave as expected:

More info
On a new round entities with this classname will intentionally not reset. You can use `logic_auto` to emulate resetting it. Killing it removes it forever, as it is not respawned on a new round. It cannot be spawned with a `point_template`. Parenting this with non-preserved entities may have undesirable effects.
