BaseTrigger
`OnStartTouch` Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger. `!activator` is whatever touches the trigger. Bug:Spamming crouch jumps in a trigger can randomly fire `OnStartTouch`. Confirm:Is it a Multiplayer issue only? [todo tested in?] `OnStartTouchAll` Fired when a valid entity starts touching this trigger, and no other entities are touching it. If there are any other entities touching the trigger when a new one begins to touch, only `OnStartTouch` will fire. `OnEndTouch` Fired when a valid entity stops touching this trigger. Warning:This includes entities which are deleted while inside the trigger. In this case `!activator` will be invalid. Warning:Will also fire if sent `Disable` input or an entity teleports outside of the trigger area. Warning:`OnEndTouch` can fire before `OnStartTouch` under certain circumstances where both are fired on the same tick and each have the same delay. Fix:Add a slight delay to `OnEndTouch`. Bug:Spamming crouch jump in a trigger can randomly fire `OnEndTouch`. Confirm:Is it a Multiplayer issue only? [todo tested in?] `OnEndTouchAll` Fired when all valid entities stop touching this trigger. `OnTouching` (in all games since ) Fired if something is currently touching this trigger when `TouchTest` is fired. `OnNotTouching` (in all games since ) Fired if nothing is currently touching this trigger when `TouchTest` is fired.

BaseTrigger
`Toggle` Toggles this trigger between enabled and disabled states. `Enable` Enable trigger `Disable` Disable trigger `TouchTest` (in all games since ) Triggers either the `OnTouching` or `OnNotTouching` outputs for whether anything is touching this entity. `StartTouch` (in all games since ) !FGD Behave as if the `!caller` entity had just entered the trigger volume. Accepts non-physical entities. `EndTouch` (in all games since ) !FGD Behave as if `!caller` had just exited the trigger volume. `DisableAndEndTouch` (only in ) Disables this trigger and calls `EndTouch` on all currently-touching entities.
