Env spark

Entity Description

env_spark with directional, glowing medium sized sparks

An entity used to create sparks at its origin.

Note:By default, the sparks jump up a bit from the origin of the entity, so if you are attempting to create a situation like in the picture on the right, you must use the Directional flag and direct the entity downwards.

Parentname:

SetParent <stringRedirectInput/string>

Move with this entity. See Entity Hierarchy (parenting).

SetParentAttachment <stringRedirectInput/string>

Change this entity to attach to a specific attachment point on its parent. The entity will teleport so that the position of its root bone matches that of the attachment. Entities must be parented before being sent this input.

SetParentAttachmentMaintainOffset <stringRedirectInput/string>

As above, but without teleporting. The entity retains its position relative to the attachment at the time of the input being received.

ClearParent

Removes this entity from the the movement hierarchy, leaving it free to move independently.
