tf_projectile_jar
From Valve Developer Community
tf_projectile_jar is a point entity available in Team Fortress 2.
tf_projectile_jar is a projectile used by the weapon tf_weapon_jar. This projectile coats enemies in mini-crits about the size of a explosion and extinguishes you and your teammates if on fire. It is possible to reflect this projectile with the pyro's primary weapons and destroy them with the engineer's secondary weapon short-circuit like most projectiles.
Keyvalues
Targetname:
- Name
<string>
- The targetname that other entities refer to this entity by.
- Entity Scripts
<scriptlist>
(New with Left 4 Dead 2) - Space delimited list of VScript files (without file extension) that are executed after all entities have spawned. The scripts are all executed in the same script scope, later ones overwriting any identical variables and functions.
- Script think function
<string>
(New with Left 4 Dead 2) - Name of a function in this entity's script which will be called automatically every 100 milliseconds (ten times a second) for the duration of the script. It can be used to create timers or to simulate autonomous behavior. The return value (if present) will set the time until the next call.
Note:Try to avoid expensive operations in this function, as it may cause performance problems.
Inputs
Targetname:
-
Kill
- Removes this entity and any entities parented to it from the world.
-
KillHierarchy
- Functions the same as
Kill
, although this entity and any entities parented to it are killed on the same frame, being marginally faster thanKill
. -
AddOutput
<string>
- Evaluates a keyvalue/output on this entity. It can be potentially very dangerous, use with care.
Format:<key> <value>
Format:<output name> <targetname>:<inputname>:<parameter>:<delay>:<max times to fire, -1 means infinite>
-
FireUser1
toFireUser4
- Fire the
OnUser
outputs; see User Inputs and Outputs. -
Use
!FGD - Same as a player invoking +use; may not do anything. Can also be invoked by creating an output that does not specify an input.
This input is not included in Valve's FGDs. -
RunScriptFile
<script>
(New with Left 4 Dead 2) - Execute a VScript file from disk, without file extension. The script contents are merged with the script scope of the receiving entity.
-
RunScriptCode
<string>
(New with Left 4 Dead 2) - Execute a string of VScript source code in the scope of the entity receiving the input. String quotation may be needed when fired via console.
Bug: In
, the code is executed in the script scope of the entity that fires the output, not the one receiving the input.
Warning: Never try to pass string parameters to a script function with this input. It will corrupt the VMF structure because of the nested quotation marks, which then must be removed manually with a text editor.
-
CallScriptFunction
<string>
(New with Left 4 Dead 2) !FGD - Execute a VScript function in the scope of the receiving entity.
-
SetLocalOrigin
<coordinates>
(New with Alien Swarm) !FGD - Send this entity to a spot in the map. If the entity is parented to something, it will be offset from the parent by this amount.
-
SetLocalAngles
<angles>
(New with Alien Swarm) !FGD - Set this entity's angles.
Outputs
Targetname:
-
OnUser1
toOnUser4
