Template:Entity
It is a trigger that teleports entities that touch its volume. Entities are teleported to the Remote Destination, and have their angles set to that of the Remote Destination's angles. If a Local Destination Landmark is specified, teleported entities are offset from the target by their initial offset from the landmark, and their angles are left alone.
Tip:You can use env_fade to smoothen the player's perspective while teleporting (0.6 seconds is a good duration to start with). If you're intending to teleport players in multiplayer, remember to set the triggering player only flag!Keyvalues
- Remote Destination (target) <targetname>
- The entity specifying the point to which entities should be teleported. Usually either a info_teleport_destination or info_target.
Note:Any entity can be used as the teleport destination, including players.Tip:This can be changed if necessary by using AddOutput.
Warning:
Teleport to a killed teleport destination entity will crash your client/server.
- Local Destination Landmark (landmark) <targetname>
- If specified, then teleported entities are offset from the target by their initial offset from the landmark.
Tip:You can use !self to use the origin of this entity as the landmark.
Local Destination Landmark UsagePlayer position relative to the landmark (when teleported) is transferred to the destination.
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.
BaseTrigger
- Filter Name (filtername) <filter>
- A filter entity to test potential activators against.
- Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enableinput).

Note:Some SDK versions list trigger_teleport flag 32 as "Preserve angles even when a local landmark is not specified" but may actually behave according the newer flags above. To achieve the angle-preserving behavior, you can instead specify !activator for the landmark property.
Inputs
BaseTrigger
- Toggle
- Toggles this trigger between enabled and disabled states.
- Enable
- Enable trigger
- Disable
- Disable trigger
- TouchTest (in all games since
 )
- Triggers either the OnTouching or OnNotTouching outputs for whether anything is touching this entity.
 Bug:Sleeping prop_physics will never fire "OnTouching". Also applies to entities using prop_physics as base. (tested in:  )
- StartTouch (in all games since ) !FGD
- Behave as if the !caller entity had just entered the trigger volume. Accepts non-physical entities.
- EndTouch (in all games since ) !FGD
- Behave as if !caller had just exited the trigger volume.
- DisableAndEndTouch (only in
  )
- Disables this trigger and calls EndTouch on all currently-touching entities.

Outputs
BaseTrigger
- OnStartTouch
- !activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger.
- OnStartTouchAll
- !activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger, and no other entities are touching it. If there are any other entities touching the trigger when a new one begins to touch, only OnStartTouch will fire.
- OnEndTouch
- !activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when a valid entity stops touching this trigger.
Note:Will also fire for entities touching it when trigger is disabled via Disable input Warning:This includes entities which are deleted while inside the trigger. In this case !activator will be invalid. Warning:OnEndTouch can fire before OnStartTouch under certain circumstances[How?] where both are fired on the same tick and each have the same delay. Fix:Add a slight delay to OnEndTouch.
- OnEndTouchAll
- !activator = entity that caused this output
!caller = this entity
Fired when all valid entities stop touching this trigger.
- OnTouching (in all games since )
- !activator = !caller = this entity
Fired if something is currently touching this trigger when TouchTest is fired.
- OnNotTouching (in all games since )
- !activator = !caller = this entity
Fired if nothing is currently touching this trigger when TouchTest is fired.
