This entity has a "start on" flag, suggesting it can start "off", but no input to start it. How do you start it? Thelonesoldier 12:42, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

+use, which makes no sense at all. I'm not even sure how you would do that. --TomEdwards 12:56, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
You could try the Use input, unless you meant +Using it in game. Solokiller 14:58, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
What Use input? Thelonesoldier 22:09, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
The one named Use, it's defined as an input in BaseEntity, so it should work with this entity. It might not be listed as an input in hammer though. Solokiller 09:22, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
Just type it in manually? Thelonesoldier 12:01, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
Yes, i can't guarantee it will work, but it's worth a shot. Solokiller 10:09, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

If toggle is off sending another input will crash game

It appears if the toggle spawnflag is off that sending another use input will crash Counter-Strike: Source. Also, using ent_fire can toggle the ent off, but not not turn it on. Parenting can also produce unusual effects. Definitely needs more testing especially in regards to crashing. --Sirhephaestus (talk) 09:19, 11 November 2024 (PST)
