Prop scalable

Template:Entity It creates a non-solid model that can be resized dynamically via inputs. It is used for the "superportal" effects at the beginning and end of the game. This entity is the successor of prop_coreball from Half-Life 2: Episode One .

Bug:This entity is defined in later games' FGDs but is not implemented in the engine.  [todo tested in ?]

In code, it is represented by theCPropScalableclass, defined in theprop_scalable.cppfile.

Inputs

SetScaleX <vectorRedirectInput/Vector>

SetScaleY <vectorRedirectInput/Vector>

SetScaleZ <vectorRedirectInput/Vector>

Scales the model (local axes). Accepts either newscale timespan or newscale, where "newscale" is a float that sets the new scale of the prop, and "timespan" is an integer number of seconds over which the size change happens. If no timespan is specified, the changes apply immediately.

Note:Changing the size is not able via variables (e.g., math_counter). You can set the different sizes in a logic_case to get a near-blend between different sizes.
