point_anglesensor is a point entity available in all 
Source games.
It detects whether another entity points in a given direction for a period of time.
Contents
KeyValues
- Name
(targetname)<string> - The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentnameortarget).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
- Target Entity Name
(target)<targetname> - Name of the entity whose angles will be sensed.
- Look At Entity
(lookatname)<targetname> - The entity we want to check to see if the Target Entity is looking at.
- Duration
(duration)<float> - The amount of time the Target Entity must look at the 'Look at Entity' to trigger this entity, in seconds.
- Tolerance
(tolerance)<integer> - The tolerance, in degrees, in the checking to determine when the Target Entity is looking at the Look At Entity.
- Start Disabled
(StartDisabled)<boolean> - Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enableinput).
Flags
Use target entity's angles (NOT position) : [1]
Inputs
Toggle- Toggle the sensor between enabled and disabled.
Test- Check to see if the Target Entity is facing the Look At Entity within the specified tolerance, firing either the
OnFacingLookatorOnNotFacingLookatoutput based on the result.
EnableDisable:
Enable / Disable- Enable/disable this entity from performing its task. It might also disappear from view.
Outputs
TargetDir<vector>- Fired when the forward direction of the Target Entity changes. Passes the new forward direction as a parameter.
OnFacingLookat- Fired when the Target Entity points at the Look At Entity for more than the specified Duration, or in response to a
Testinput.
OnNotFacingLookat- Fires in response to a
Testinput when the Target Entity is not pointing at the Look At Entity.
FacingPercentage<float>- Normalized value (0..1) where 1 is facing directly at target and 0 is at or beyond the angle of tolerance.
