monster_miniturret

monster_miniturret is a point entity available in Half-Life, Half-Life: Opposing Force, Half-Life: Blue Shift, and Team Fortress Classic.

Todo: add image(s) for this entity

The smaller brother of the monster_turret, this turret is part of Black Mesa's automated defense systems. However, since the military has taken control of the facility, it will fire at anyone and anything that isn't a human soldier. But in some cases it is possible to enable or disable the system by cutting its power or via a nearby console.

In Team Fortress Classic, this turret acts as a spawncamp detergent.
