path_vphysics Is a point entity in Portal 2: Community Edition Portal 2: Community Edition and Portal: Revolution Portal: Revolution. It pushes objects in its radius, at the speed defined.

Clarify: What does the keyvalue dampening do?
Tip.pngTip:path_vphysics is very simular to path_track, meaning that you can shift-drag the paths to create a track.
Note.pngNote:While using path_vphysics is very easy for Diversity Vent creation, it's more resource intensive. If the Diversity Vents cannot be interacted with, don't use path_vphysics and instead see Vacuum Tube.
