Dogtags preview.

item_dogtags is a point entity available in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. It's one of many new features added with the Operation Hydra.

Entity Description

T variant.	CT variant.	No team.

Dogtags preview.

This entity can be used in the Deathmatch game mode, see CS:GO Game Modes/Deathmatch#Dogtags. It is used in the War Games Hunter-Gatherers and the unused Bounty Hunter.

Players who pick this entity up are awarded Deathmatch points and see a message in the chat: "N points for picking up X's dogtags", where N is an integer and X the name of the victim. The ConVar mp_dogtag_pickup_rule determines which players are eligible to pick this entity up.

The model consists of a dogtag and a sprite whose color depends on this entity's teamnumber (modulo 32). Its VMT file csgo/models/inventory_items/dogtags/dogtags_lightray.vmt uses the GetTeamNumber and Select material proxies.

• If the value is 2, which is the Terrorist's team number, the sprite is orange.
• If the value is 3, which is the Counter-Terrorist's team number, the sprite is blue.
• Otherwise, the sprite is white.

It can be spawned using ent_create item_dogtags with no team initially. The team and color of all dogtags can be set with ent_fire item_dogtags setteam <number>.
