(In response to a Problem Map to shake cables when a grenade goes off near them)

Run the bsp and toss a grenade into the enclosure. The blast will shake the cable.

An invisible func_physbox in the enclosure takes damage from a nearby explosion. The physbox trigger "OnDamaged" restores its own health and triggers an invisible func_movelinear parented to the move_rope entity at one end of the cable. The cable shakes, simulating a response to the force of the explosion.

Ooh, clever. This is simply to exaggerate the effect, I take it? Cables should move to some extent I think? (Or is that only caused by env_wind? I thought rotorblades on the combine heli did that too...) - In either case, a useful effect.

To the best of my knowledge, a grenade by itself doesn't affect a move-rope (unless it's microscopically - I couldn't see it). So: no, it's not to exaggerate the effect; it's to cause it! ;)
