Info holder for all inputs assigned through the CBaseEntity class. Parameters are vital to display the appropiate info, because new games have added new features throughout the years. See Help:Templates for more info on named parameters.

Note:If you want to edit something on this template, please make sure you edit it in both places. Per-game keyvalues are duplicated, for technical reasons. Also see FGD Template Prototype.

Note:Some CBaseEntity keyvalues are not covered here. See the talk page.

Usage

All parameters for this template:

• base- Shows only information relevant to when it was initially added for the first time
• l4d2- Include info specific to (VScripts)
• as- Include info specific to (SetLocalOrigin and SetLocalAngles)

Show Deprecated:  

• prel4d - (DEPRECATED 9/28/18: This parameter existed to hide DispatchEffect for games (ones before l4d) that did not have it. There's many cases of similar inputs and keyvalues that aren't in absolutely everything, and making similar parameters for all of those simply isn't worth the trouble, especially considering having to comb through every existing use of those templates. Parameter is totally removed from code and affects nothing.)
• portal2- Was used to show keyalues for some reason. Using this will redirect to keyvalues.
• tf2 - (DEPRECATED 28/4/2021: Was only used to showSetTeamkeyvalue's TF2 specific information. Use {{I TeamNum}} instead

, when it starts to exist...)

These must be used in a specific syntax; All the parameters must be given a value of 1, like for example:as=1for specific info. Refer to the Examples section.
