Trigger brush

This entity is obsolete. Its use is discouraged. It may only exist/function in older engine branches.

This entity is not in the FGD by default.
See below for instructions on making it available.

Template:Base brush Deprecated entity during the development of Half Life 2, it's sole difference compared to other entities is that a OnUse output exists.

Note:The brush is fully solid unlike other trigger entities.

Note:Use func_button instead, it behaves like trigger_brush but is more likely to work on any version of source.

Note:The player events (such as game_playerdie) are useable by all entities and not just by this entity, despite common misconception. The list of those is now available on the Targetname page.

In code, it is represented by theCTriggerBrushclass, defined in themodelentities.cppfile.
