item_sodacan is a model entity available in all Source games except Strata Source. It's a soda can that falls out of env_beverage, healing 1 hit point when touched.

Note:This uses models/can.mdl by default.
In most games except Half-Life: Source, Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, and Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3, you will need to provide your own model as this one is not present.
Additionally, the ItemSoda.Bounce soundscript should also be provided, which plays every time the soda can thinks.

Note:Still exists in Black Mesa, but is deprecated by prop_soda.
