Template:Base brush It is a trigger volume that damages entities that touch it.

See damage types for a list on how different damage types will affect the player.

Note.pngNote:Some damage types like Generic only deal 50% damage, others like Fall deal 100% damage. This might differ in various games.
Warning.pngWarning:In its enabled state the entity marks all navigation mesh areas in its AABB or atmost 72 units below or atmost 16 units to the sides as damaging even if the damage is negative. Damaging areas are marked with a dark blue rectangle and bots (in Left 4 Dead seriesLeft 4 Dead series only survivor bots) will try to avoid them.

Damage Model (damagemodel) <choices>
How damage is dealt. Normal always does the specified amount of damage each half second. Doubling starts with the specified amount and doubles it each time it hurts the toucher. Forgiveness means that if the toucher gets out of the trigger the damage will reset to the specified value. Good for making triggers that are deadly over time without having to cause massive damage on each touch.

Should the damaged entity receive no physics force from this trigger.
