dz_door

dz_door is a point entity available in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. It's one of many new entities added with the Danger Zone update.

Entity Description

Acts similarly to prop_door_rotating, but has an extra property to act like a security door that can be opened only by paying money.

Keyvalues

Name (targetname) <string>

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.

See also:  Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities

Parentname:

Parent (parentname) <targetname>

Specifies a movement parent. An entity will maintain its initial offset from its parent. An attachment point can be added to the end of the name, separated by a comma.

Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) (angles) <angle>

This entity's orientation in the world. Pitch is rotation around the Y axis, yaw is the rotation around the Z axis, roll is the rotation around the X axis.

Global:

Global Entity Name (globalname) <string>

Name by which this entity is linked to another entity in a different map. When the player transitions to a new map, entities in the new map with globalnames matching entities in the previous map will have the previous map's state copied over their state.

Studiomodel:

World Model (model) <string>

The model this entity should appear as. 128-character limit.

Skin (skin) <integer>

Some models have multiple skins. This value selects from the index, starting with 0.

Tip:Hammer's model browser automatically updates this value if you use it to view different skins.

Model Scale (modelscale) <float> (in all games since ) (also in )

A multiplier for the size of the model.

Tip:In Hammer++ with a prop selected in 3D view, hold Ctrl and scroll the mouse wheel to change the modelscale in increments of 0.5. Holding ⇧ Shift will scale it in smaller increments of 0.05.

Bodygroup (body / SetBodyGroup) <integer>

Some models have multiple submodels. This value selects from the index, starting with 0. May be overridden by animations and/or game code.

Note:If both body and SetBodyGroup are present (even if set to 0), body will be prioritized.

Sequence (sequence) <integer> !FGD

Default animation sequence for the model to be playing after spawning. May be overridden by game code.

Lighting Origin (lightingorigin) <targetname>

Select an entity (not info_lighting!) from which to sample lighting instead of the entity's origin or $illumposition.

Shadow:

Disable Shadows (disableshadows) <boolean>

Prevents the entity from creating cheap render-to-texture shadows, or lightmap shadows if the entity is a prop_static. Does not affect shadow mapping.

Disable Receiving Shadows (disablereceiveshadows) <boolean>

Prevent the entity from receiving dynamic shadows on itself.

Shadow Cast Distance (shadowcastdist) <integer> !FGD

Sets how far the entity casts dynamic shadows. 0 means default distance from the shadow_control entity.

Disable Shadow Depth (disableshadowdepth) <boolean> (in all games since )

Used to disable rendering into shadow depth (for projected textures) for this entity.

Disable flashlight (disableflashlight) <boolean> (in all games since )

Used to disable projected texture lighting and shadows on this entity.

Projected Texture Cache (shadowdepthnocache) <integer choices> (in all games since )

Used to hint projected texture system whether it is sufficient to cache shadow volume of this entity or to force render it every frame instead.

Choices

0 : Default 1 : No cache - render every frame 2 : Cache it - render only once

Render in Fast Reflections (drawinfastreflection) <boolean> (in all games since )

If enabled, this entity will render in fast water reflections (i.e. when a water material specifies $reflectonlymarkedentities) and in the world impostor pass.

BaseFadeProp:

Start Fade Dist (fademindist) <float>

Distance at which the entity starts to fade.

End Fade Dist (fademaxdist) <float>

Max fade distance at which the entity is visible.

• If start fade is <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit.
• If end fade is <0, the entity won't disappear at all. (This is the default behavior.)

The values will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.

Fade Scale (fadescale) <float>

If you specify so in worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8 (DX7 in ), props will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives you some control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, while those greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether. See also the QC command $noforcedfade.

Slave name <targetname>

Name of any door(s) that should open and close at the same time as this one. You could also give them all the same name.

Hardware Type <choices>

• None
• Lever (i.e. door handle)

  Note: Keypad hardware has no model ingame.

Spawn Position <choices>

State the door should begin in. Check the door's angles to see forward/backward orientation.

Ajar Angles <angle>

If "Spawn Position" is "ajar", these are the angles to spawn at instead of being open or closed.

Delay Before close <int>

Number of seconds the door waits until closing by itself. -1 means never auto-close.

Damage Inflicted When Blocked <int>

Force Closed <bool>

If set, this door will close no matter what. Useful for doors that have to close even if the player tries to block them with objects.

Setting up Security Doors for Danger Zone

dz_door:

dz_door properties.

Name the door in similar pattern: door1-secgate.door, this seems to be hard coded, the -secgate.door part needs to be always there with name before the hyphen.

Add a keyvalue counter_name secgate.counter this property is not part of the entity and needs to be added with SmartEdit off.

Set property Security door to Yes.

prop_counter:

prop_counter properties.

Place prop_counter next to the door and name it in similiar pattern: door1-secgate.counter, this seems to be hard coded, the -secgate.counter part needs to be always there with name before the hyphen.

point_dz_weaponspawn:

point_dz_weaponspawn properties.

Place point_dz_weaponspawn behind the door and change the Door Name property to match the name of the door, in this case it would be: door_name door1-secgate.door.

Add a keyvalue tagBehindSteelDoor 1 this property is not part of the entity and needs to be added with SmartEdit off. This will let the door know what's behind it so it can give the correct price for that item or to spawn the door open if nothing's behind it.
