Template:Entity It is an alternate version of point_viewcontrol which is capable of controlling the view of multiple players at once. While it's active, the players will see out of the camera. Enabling the entity will control all players' views by default, but individual players can be added/removed by using the AddPlayer and RemovePlayer inputs with said player as the !activator. Starting in Portal 2, it can also be set to only affect players on a specific team.
