player is a point entity available in all Source games. The player itself or a bot. NPCs are not players. This entity still exists even if the player is dead.

Note:This is a preserved entity in .

• On a new round, its properties including its position will intentionally not reset. You can use logic_auto to emulate resetting it.
• Killing it removes it forever, as it is not respawned on a new round.
• It cannot be spawned with a point_template.
• Parenting this with non preserved entities may have undesirable effects.
