Item item crate

Template:Hl2 point It's the standard supply crate that creates specified content when broken.
By default, it contains item_dynamic_resupply, an entity that spawns whatever item the player needs most (health, armor, ammo). By changing the crate's Item Type, you can make it drop specific items.
(This is not a CItem however.)
Flags

Keyvalues
Crate Contains (CrateType) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>- Deprecated.
Do not alter. Numbers other than 0 will cause the crate to spawn nothing after being broken. (If that's desired, try to use a prop_physics instead as it's not as memory-intensive.)
- Item Type (ItemClass) ([todo internal name (i)]) <pointentityclass>
- Classname of the entity to spawn when the crate is broken. Suggested point entity: item_dynamic_resupply
BreakableProp:
- Explosion Damage (ExplodeDamage) <float>
- If non-zero, when this entity breaks it will create an explosion that causes the specified amount of damage. See also Explosion Radius.
- Explosion Radius (ExplodeRadius) <float>
- If non-zero, when this entity breaks it will create an explosion with a radius of the specified amount. See also Explosion Damage.
- Sound to make when punted (puntsound) <sound> (in all games since
)
- Sound to make when punted by gravity gun.
- Break Model Message (BreakModelMessage) <string> (only in
)
- "If set, will use this break model message instead of the normal break behavior."
Breakable (common):
- Performance Mode (PerformanceMode) <choices>
- Used to limit the amount of gibs produced when this entity breaks, for performance reasons.
Choices - 0: Normal
- 1: No Gibs
- 2: Full Gibs on All Platforms (Xbox 360, PS3, etc)
- 3: Reduced gibs
- Min Damage to Hurt (minhealthdmg) <integer>
- If a single hit to the object doesn't do at least this much damage, the prop won't take any of the damage it attempted to give.
- Pressure Delay (PressureDelay) <float>
- Seconds to delay breaking from pressure. Allows creaking/groaning sounds to play.
- Health (health) <integer>
- How close to breaking the object is.
- Maximum Health (max_health) <integer>
- Health cannot exceed this amount.
- Physics Impact Damage Scale (physdamagescale) <float>
- Multiplier for damage amount when this entity is hit by a physics object. With a value of 0 the entity will take no damage from physics.
Who can break this? - 0: Everyone
- 1: All Infected
- 2: Only Tanks

Inputs

BreakableProp:
- Break
- Breaks the breakable.
- SetHealth <integer >
- Sets a new value for the breakable's health. If the breakable's health reaches zero it will break.
- AddHealth <integer >
- Adds health to the breakable.
- RemoveHealth <integer >
- Removes health from the breakable.
- physdamagescale <float >
- Sets Physics Impact Damage Scale. 0 means this feature is disabled for backwards compatibility.
- EnablePhyscannonPickup
- Makes the breakable able to picked up by the gravity gun.
- DisablePhyscannonPickup
- Makes the breakable not able to picked up by the gravity gun.
- EnablePuntSound (in all games since
)
- Allow this prop from playing its Punt Sound sound when punted by the gravity gun.
- DisablePuntSound (in all games since
)
- Prevent this prop from playing its Punt Sound sound when punted by the gravity gun.

Outputs
- OnCacheInteraction
- This output fires when the player proves they have "found" this item.
- Fires on:
- Player Touch (whether or not player actually acquires the item).
- Picked up by +use.
- Picked up by gravity gun.
- Punted by gravity gun.

BreakableBrush:
- OnBreak
- !activator = entity that breaks the object
!caller = this entity
Fired when this object breaks.
- OnHealthChanged <float >
- !activator = entity that caused the health change
!caller = this entity
Fired whenever the health of the breakable has increased or decreased. This output automatically puts the new health amount as a decimal percent (e.g. 45% = 0.45) into the parameter box for inputs, if the mapper does not override the parameter with something else.
