Target: Inventory rules failed target_on_fail : Entity to trigger whenever test result is negative.

ZHLT Template Model Target zhlt_usemodel : For Brush entities: sets brush model template of this entity. Set it to the name of other brush entity (now called a template) and it's brush model will be used instead. Templates might save server resources by "copying" single brush entity (template identified by name) and using it in multiple places (can be used for entities like tables, columns, barrels, cars e.t.c.). Also one template occupies only one entity slot when compiling a map, no matter how many entities refers to it. For model-based point entities: copy display model of specified entity, to use it's model instead. Using "Custom model" is more appropriate in most cases, however, when it's not possible, use "ZHLT Copy Lighting From Target".

ZHLT Copy Lighting From Target zhlt_copylight : For Brush entities: copies light info from specified entity. This can be useful when we want this entity to be light up in a similar way the other entity of the map is, e.g. we have few func_pushables on map, and they are lit differently, tough they can be moved (and lightning is not updated on dynamic entities), it may looks shabby. With this keyvalue we can prevent this making all func_pushables received light in a same way. Another example: we have few windows in corridor (e.g. func_breakables), all of them receive a light in acceptable way, but the last window receive part of the light from another room and breaking whole atmosphere. We can set this window "Copy Lightning From Target" to any other window to fix this. Note that this can be also used for completely different entities, so we copy lightning from func_door to func_breakable as well. For model-based point entities: if model lightning does not satisfy you (e.g. it's too dark) you can specify a name of entity here to copy it's lightning values- it can be other model-based entity or simply info_target.

ZHLT Disable Clipping zhlt_noclip : Enable or disable collision of entity.

  • 0 : Default : Keep default collision.
  • 1 : Always non-solid : This makes entity non-solid- all collision info from this entity will be ignored. Use it in case when entity have no build-in collision disabling ability (e.g. by selecting "Passable" flag in func_door) and you much desire to disable collision for this entity.

ZHLT Invisible zhlt_invisible : Brush entities only. Determines if entity should be visible.

  • 0 : Visible (default)
  • 1 : Invisible

ZHLT Custom Shadow (when opaque) zhlt_customshadow : Opaque brush entities only. If "ZHLT Ligth Flags" of this entity uses any of the option with 'Opaque' word, this will allow to customize shadow dropped by this entity. Value format: [0 - 1.0] [0 - 1.0] [0 - 1.0], use three values for color or only one for transparency.

ZHLT Embed Light Map (when translucent) zhlt_embedlightmap : Transparent brush entities only. Set it to 'Yes' and this transparent entity will take a light from environment making it looks much more natural. Use it when entities (e.g. glass represented by func_wall) omits lightning from surrounding. Note that this is expensive so shouldn't be used too often, but resolution of those lightmaps can be controlled by keyvalue explained below.

  • 0 : No (default)
  • 1 : Yes

ZHLT Embed Light Map Resolution zhlt_embedlightmapresolution : Value of power of two that controls the resolution of embedded lightmaps of transparent textures (see keyvalue above). Higher value for better optimization. Default and recommended value is 4.

Target Path netname : Non functional.

Master master : Name of the multisource entity that (temporary) disables this trigger_push. If master is specified the trigger_push will be disabled and will not work. When multisource entity is triggered/being triggering by all possible inputs, the trigger_push will work again. When multisource lost at least one input signal, the entities becomes disabled again.

Sound style sounds : Non functional.

  • 0 : No Sound

Message (set sound too!) message : Non functional.

Allow tiny monsters (insects/hornets) tiny_monsters : If set to 'Yes', monsters like cockroaches can trigger this entity as well as other monsters.

  • 0 : No
  • 1 : Yes

Pitch Yaw Roll (X Y Z) angles : Where Z means Y and Y means Z, that is, when you're thinking Hammer-grid. (Hammer uses Z for height and Y for depth, while every other sane 3D-application does this the other way round; nonetheless this keyvalue description has the letters in the conventional order) This, technically, is a 3D-vector containing Euler-angles to describe either the entity's rotation or direction of effect. E.g. a func_door_rotating will use this as its initial rotation, while a trigger_push will keep its original alignment and use this for the direction of its push-effect instead. Euler-angles are a hierarchical system to determine an object's orientation in 3D-space. A yaw-value of 0 would mean the entity would face east. (right in top-down view) 90 would mean it would face north. (up in top-down-view) After yaw, pitch is applied. Think aiming up/down with your character in first person. At last, the roll-value is applied. Think your character falling over sideways in first person. Some entities, mostly point entities, do not use the angles keyvalue for any purpose.

Speed of push speed : Set the acceleration in units per second to the power of two. That's the same type of acceleration as done by gravity (the default gravity is '800'), just in another direction, which is specified by 'angle' (Pitch Yaw and Roll).

Flags

  • 1 : Once Only : If set, this trigger_push will be active only for as long as the first affected entity entering it remains within it.

  • 2 : Start Off : If set, this trigger_push will start disabled and requires activation per trigger.

  • 4 : Pushables : If set, func_pushable entities can trigger this.

  • 8 : No Clients : If set, players won't be affected.

  • 16 : No Monsters : If set, monsters won't be affected.

  • 32 : Fire On Exit : If set, trigger_push will trigger as soon as something that entered it left it, instead of the instant something enters it.

  • 64 : Force push : Prevents players and monsters from moving in the opposite direction of the push.

  • 2048 : Not in Deathmatch : Obsolete in Sven Co-op. Makes the entity don't appear in Multiplayer Games.

"Target", "Kill Target" and "Delay Before Trigger" keyvalues does not work on this entity. That means this trigger can't act like touch detectors (to fire it's target when touched).

Master keyvalue doesn't work for this entity.
