cycler_sprite
(Redirected from Cycler sprite)
cycler_sprite
is a point entity available in all GoldSrc games. A simple model entity that is intended for previewing sprites. As env_sprite works better for placing sprites in a map (not being removed when loading a saved game), this entity frequently gets relegated to being used to display MDLs instead in multiplayer games such as Counter-Strike.
