BaseTrain:

First Stop Target (target) <targetname>

The name of the first path_track in the train's path. The train will spawn at this path_track. It will also turn to face the direction indicated by the "Orientation Type" setting.

Max Speed (units/second) (startspeed) <integer>

The maximum speed that this train can move. Any speeds applied to this train, such as by path_tracks or SetSpeed inputs, will be clipped to this maximum value.

Initial Speed (units/second) (speed) <integer>

The speed that the train will move at after it spawns, 0 = stopped.

Change Velocity (velocitytype) <choices>

The method through which this train changes its velocity as it moves along the path.

• 0 : Instantaneously
• 1 : Linear blend
• 2 : Ease in/ease out

Change angles (orientationtype) <choices>

The method through which this train changes its orientation as it moves along the path.

• 0 : Never (always fixed orientation)
• 1 : Near paths
• 2 : Linear blend
• 3 : Ease in/ease out

Distance Between the Wheels (wheels) <integer>

Used for turning and stopping.

Tip:Increase the value for smoother turns.

Height above track (height) <integer>

The height above the track that this train moves.

Bank Angle on Turns (bank) <string>

The angle at which the train will "bank" or tilt when approaching a turn. Use positive or negative angle numbers close to 0 (i.e., between -5 and +5, depending on left or right) to achieve realistic tilt angles.

Damage on Crush (dmg) <integer>

The amount of damage this train does to entities that block it.

Minimum Light Level (_minlight) <string>

The minimum level of ambient light that hits this brush.

Move Sound (MoveSound) <sound>

A sound that is played (and looped) while the train is moving.

Move Ping Sound (MovePingSound) <sound>

A sound that is played more frequently as the train speeds up.

Start Sound (StartSound) <sound>

A sound played when the train starts moving.

Stop Sound (StopSound) <sound>

A sound played when the train stops moving.

Volume (10 = loudest) (volume) <integer>

Volume of the sound when the train is moving.

Min pitch (1-255, 100 = normal) (MoveSoundMinPitch) <integer>

The sound pitch value that the train will approach as it comes to a stop.

Max pitch (1-255, 100 = normal) (MoveSoundMaxPitch) <integer>

The sound pitch value that the train will approach as it approaches its max speed (or 1000 inches/second if the "Use max speed for pitch shifting move sound" flag is not set).

Min move sound interval (MoveSoundMinTime) <float>

Minimum interval at which to play the move ping sound.

Max move sound interval (MoveSoundMaxTime) <float>

Maximum interval at which to play the move ping sound.

Manual Train Speed (manualspeedchanges) <boolean>

Train Speed is controlled through IO, handles accel, decel times.

Manual Accel Speed (manualaccelspeed) <float>

Units per second to accelerate to target speed.

Manual Decel Speed (manualdecelspeed) <float>

Units per second to decelerate to target speed.

Note:The above three keyvalues are !FGD in Left 4 Dead and later, but appear to still exist in the engine.
