trigger_playermovement is a brush entity available in all Source Source games. It can be used to control player's movement options, for instance by automatically ducking or forcing walking speed.

Icon-Bug.pngBug:If trigger is killed while players are touching they will stay in duck, walk or disable jump mode  [todo tested in?]
Icon-Bug.pngBug:Team Fortress 2Players will remain stuck in duck, walk, or disable jump mode if they die within the volume and the round subsequently resets. This behavior is not removed until the player enters and exits the trigger volume again after respawning. Untested in other games, but you should probably not use this entity in a place where players could die while touching it shortly before round reset.  [todo tested in?]
