Many entities can use a filter: an entity that examines each potential activation/activator and discards it unless it matches certain criteria. A list of all filter entities is lower down this page.

Tip.pngTip:Filters can be combined using filter_multi.

Examples

For Programmers

Programmers do not need to use filter entities, since they already have direct access to all of the requisite data. Source's C++ filter classes are instead used to decide where data should be sent.

Quirks

Filters can't be disabled by other entities' Outputs, only killed.
