Note:Some keyvalues, spawnflags, effect flags, inputs, or outputs might not affect an NPC, based on the functionality and coding of the NPC.

Keyvalues

Name (targetname) <string>

The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.

See also:  Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities

Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) (angles) <angle>

This entity's orientation in the world. Pitch is rotation around the Y axis, yaw is the rotation around the Z axis, roll is the rotation around the X axis.

BaseFadeProp:

Start Fade Dist (fademindist) <float>

Distance at which the entity starts to fade.

End Fade Dist (fademaxdist) <float>

Max fade distance at which the entity is visible.

• If start fade is <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit.
• If end fade is <0, the entity won't disappear at all. (This is the default behavior.)

The values will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.

Fade Scale (fadescale) <float>

If you specify so in worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8 (DX7 in ), props will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives you some control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, while those greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether. See also the QC command $noforcedfade.

Global:

Global Entity Name (globalname) <string>

Name by which this entity is linked to another entity in a different map. When the player transitions to a new map, entities in the new map with globalnames matching entities in the previous map will have the previous map's state copied over their state.
