Not to be confused with linked_portal_door (An unrelated entity, sometimes referred to as a "world portal").
Template:Base brush It creates an areaportal, used to manage visibility in maps. When the portal is open it stops objects not visible through it from rendering; when the portal is closed it cannot be seen through at all.
These are not really brush entities. They are brush entities from a mapper/Hammer perspective, but by the time they reach the game, the brush is gone and this is, in effect, a point entity.
The entity's brush must be textured with tools\toolsareaportal (seen on the left) for it to function.
In code, it is represented by theCAreaPortalclass, defined in thefunc_areaportal.cppfile.
