script_nav_blocker is a point entity available in Left 4 Dead 2 Left 4 Dead 2. Its a func_nav_blocker, readjusted for vscripts by being stripped of any unnecessary brush data. Other than that, what applies to func_nav_blocker is applicable to script_nav_blocker. Since its a brush entity technically, using the keyvaluesminsandmaxsstill works.

When compiling Entity Groups, func_nav_blocker entities are converted to script_nav_blocker.
