weapon_shotgun is a point entity available in Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, and Half-Life 2: Lost Coast.

Entity description

A shotgun based off the Franchi SPAS-12. When first picked up, the player is given 12 shells. Up to 36 shells can be carried (including six loaded into the weapon). A box of them can be placed with item_box_buckshot.

Before it is picked up, the shotgun also follows all physics rules as if it were a prop_physics.

Keyvalues

BaseFadeProp:

Start Fade Dist (fademindist) <float>

Distance at which the entity starts to fade.

End Fade Dist (fademaxdist) <float>

Max fade distance at which the entity is visible.

• If start fade is <0, the entity will disappear instantly when end fade is hit.
• If end fade is <0, the entity won't disappear at all. (This is the default behavior.)

The values will scale appropriately if the entity is in a 3D Skybox.

Fade Scale (fadescale) <float>

If you specify so in worldspawn, or if the engine is running below DirectX 8 (DX7 in ), props will fade out even if the fade distances above aren't specified. This value gives you some control over when this happens: numbers smaller than 1 cause the prop to fade out at further distances, while those greater than 1 cause it to fade out at closer distances. Using 0 turns off the forced fade altogether. See also the QC command $noforcedfade.

Sandbox Tool Whitelist (gmod_allowtools) <string> (only in ) If set, only given tools can be used on this entity. You need to supply the tool class names, the names of the .lua files of those tools. This also includes the context menu properties!
