This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map.

env_laser_dot is a point entity available in Half-Life 2 series, Portal, and Black Mesa.

This is the laser guide endpoint that steer rocket grenades. Used by RPG to change the flying direction for the rockets. It is also used by TOW, however, it doesn't change the flying direction for the missiles. Entity kill will cause immediate respawn.

Note:Doesn't use Glow render in Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, because glows can be shined through world for a short time when appears (this bug can be found in deathmatch from Black Mesa).

Bug:In Black Mesa (mod) this entity appears automatically at map center. This happens if all these conditions match:

• The player reloads the save.
• RPG's laser is enabled.
• The player don't hold/use the RPG.

Workaround:Add a logic_auto that will fire this output (disable Remove on fire spawnflag).
