grenade_tank_shell

This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it can only be configured through code.

grenade_tank_shell is a model entity available in Black Mesa. The grenade entity that used by npc_abrams. This is a projectile fired from the barrel of an Abrams tank.

Important:In Black Mesa (mod), this grenade type represented by grenade_abrams_shell entity. See the page for information about this version of the grenade.

Bug:This grenade entity can stuck at dynamic (not physics) objects, such as prop_dynamic. In such situation, shell will not move until it explodes. Usually happens with objects that have a dynamic collision, or objects that are in motion.

Tip:If you need to fix this issue, use trigger_weaponfire that will kill stucked rockets, this trigger should be toggled by logic_timer every 0.5-1.0 seconds.

Example. Expand

Example with this metal door. The door is prop_dynamic with dynamic collision (required for animations).
