Env starfield.jpg

env_starfield is an e0 available in Half-Life 2 series Half-Life 2 series. This creates the starfield effect used in the d1_trainstation_01 intro for Half-Life 2.

Note.pngNote:This is not the entity used in the c5a1 outro in Half-Life. That is a system of 42 func_trains.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:Due to how the star trails are coded, their direction of travel will look inconsistent if the player looks around.  [todo tested in ?]
Icon-Bug.pngBug:If the player pauses the game, the number of star trails spawned will pile up over time, creating a sort of "burst" effect when unpaused.  [todo tested in ?]
Note.pngNote:This entity is also in the code for Portal. Its functionality is not guaranteed.


In code, it is represented by theCEnvStarfieldclass, defined in theenv_starfield.cppfile.
