trigger_serverragdoll is a brush entity available in all Source Source games. It is a volume that forces any NPC inside it to create a server side ragdoll instead of a client one.

Tip.pngTip:These triggers can be used to fix undesirable cases where the ragdoll of a dead enemy falls through the ground, such as when combat occurs on top of a func_breakable or func_physbox. Simply surround the area in question with one of these triggers.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:In Left 4 Dead series Left 4 Dead series ragdolls will still be client side  [todo tested in?]
Icon-Bug.pngBug:In Black Mesa Black Mesa server side ragdolls never gib before loading save.  [todo tested in?]
