env_tram_screen

env_tram_screen is a point entity available in Black Mesa. This entity creates the VGUI panel for train from Apprehension chapter. Created by prop_train_apprehension, but also can be used in Hammer.

Represented by class CTramScreen.

The VGUI panel.

Keyvalues

Panel Name (panelname) <string> 

Deprecated.
This property should use specified VGUI panel, but it always use the default panel.

Func Train To Trigger (functrainname) <targetname>

Determines the func_tracktrain that will affect the indicators on the screen. Doesn't work with other train entities.

Panel Name (panelname) <targetname>

Determines the prop that the screen will be attached to. It can be any target with model that have all the required attachment points.

CBaseEntity:

Name (targetname) <string>

The name that other entities use to refer to this entity.

Parent (parentname) <targetname>

Maintain the same initial offset to this entity. An attachment point can also be used if separated by a comma at the end. (parentname [targetname],[attachment])

Tip:Entities transition to the next map with their parents

Tip:phys_constraint can be used as a workaround if parenting fails.

Origin (X Y Z) (origin) <coordinates>

The position of this entity's center in the world. Rotating entities typically rotate around their origin.

Bug:Hammer does not move the entities accordingly in the editor.  [todo tested in?]

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.

Note:This works on brush entities, although Hammer doesn't show the new angles.

Classname (classname) <string> !FGD

Determines the characteristics of the entity before it spawns.

Tip:Changing this on runtime still has use, like making matching an entry in S_PreserveEnts will persist the entity on new rounds!

Spawnflags (spawnflags) <flags> !FGD

Toggles exclusive features of an entity, its specific number is determined by the combination of flags added.

Effects (effects) <flags> !FGD

Combination of effect flags to use.

Inputs

SetActive <void> !FGD

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

Fires the respectiveOnUseroutputs; see User Inputs and Outputs.

Kill

Removes this entity and any entities parented to it from the world.

KillHierarchy

Functions the same as Kill, although this entity and any entities parented to it are killed on the same frame, being marginally faster thanKillinput.

RemoveContext <string>

Remove a context from this entity's list. The name should match the key of an existing context.

SetParent <string>

Change this entity to attach to a specific attachment point on its parent. The entity will teleport so that the position of its root bone matches that of the attachment. Entities must be parented before being sent this input.

SetParentAttachmentMaintainOffset <string>

As above, but without teleporting. The entity retains its position relative to the attachment at the time of the input being received.

Use  !FGD

Same as a player invoking +use; no effect in most cases.

SetTeam <integer> !FGD

Changes this entity's team.

TeamNum <integer> !FGD

This input changes value for TeamNum property.

DispatchResponse <string> !FGD

Dispatches a response to the entity. See Response and Concept.

DispatchEffect <string> (removed since ) !FGD

Dispatches a special effect from the entity's origin; See also List of Client Effects. Replaced by the particle system since .

Outputs

CBaseEntity:

OnUser1 to OnUser4

These outputs each fire in response to the firing of the like-numbered FireUser1 to FireUser4 Input; see User Inputs and Outputs.
