CBaseEntity:

AddContext <string>

Adds to the entity's list of response contexts. See Context.

AddOutput <string>

Assigns a new keyvalue/output on this entity. For keyvalues, some rely on extra necessary code to be ran and won't work if its simply just changed through this input. There is a strict format that must be followed:

// Format of changing KeyValues: "AddOutput [key] [value]" //// Raw text: "OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,targetname new_name" // Format of adding an Output: "AddOutput {targetname}:{inputname}:{parameter}:{delay}:{max times to fire, -1 means infinite}" //// Raw text: "OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:SetParent:!activator:0.0:-1" // Arguments can be left blank, but the empty blank should still be contained. //// Raw text: "OnUser1" "!self,AddOutput,OnUser1:ClearParent::0.0:-1"

ClearContext

Removes all contexts from this entity's list.

ClearParent

Removes this entity from the movement hierarchy, leaving it free to move independently.

FireUser1 to FireUser4
