Brush Entity

A very useful entity that makes a, uh, door (although with a bit of imagination the definition of 'door' can be stretched).

Attributes

Name (targetname) - Property used to identify entities.
Render FX (renderfx) - Gives objects special render effects. Think of it as modifying whatever the Render Mode puts out. The options are as follows:

• 0 = Normal
• 1 = Slow Pulse
• 2 = Fast Pulse
• 3 = Slow Wide Pulse
• 4 = Fast Wide Pulse
• 5 = Slow Fade Away
• 6 = Fast Fade Away
• 7 = Slow Become Solid
• 8 = Fast Become Solid
• 9 = Slow Strobe
• 10 = Fast Strobe
• 11 = Faster Strobe
• 12 = Slow Flicker
• 13 = Fast Flicker
• 14 = Constant Glow
• 15 = Distort
• 16 = Hologram (Distort and Fade)

Render Mode (rendermode) - Controls the type of rendering that is used for an object. Options are:

• 0 = Normal
• 1 = Color
• 2 = Texture
• 3 = Glow
• 4 = Solid
• 5 = Additive

KillTarget (killtarget) - When an entity is triggered, it will remove from the game the entity specified by this property.
Master (master) - The name of a multisource (or game_team_master) entity. A master must usually be active in order for the entity to work. Thus they act almost like an on/off switch, in their simplest form, and like an AND gate in the case of the multisource.
Move Sound (movesnd) - These apply either to door or elevator type entities. For doors, the options are as follows:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = Servo (Sliding)
• 2 = Pneumatic (Sliding)
• 3 = Pneumatic (Rolling)
• 4 = Vacuum
• 5 = Power Hydraulic
• 6 = Large Rollers
• 7 = Track Door
• 8 = Snappy Metal Door

And for elevators:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = big elev 1
• 2 = big elev 2
• 3 = tech elev 1
• 4 = tech elev 2
• 5 = tech elev 3
• 6 = freight elev 1
• 7 = freight elev 2
• 8 = heavy elev
• 9 = rack elev
• 10 = rail elev
• 11 = squeek elev
• 12 = odd elev 1
• 13 = odd elev 2

Stop Sound (stopsnd) - This property is found in both door and elevator type entities. For doors, the options are:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = Clang with brake
• 2 = Clang reverb
• 3 = Ratchet Stop
• 4 = Chunk
• 5 = Light airbrake
• 6 = Metal Slide Stop
• 7 = Metal Lock Stop
• 8 = Snappy Metal Stop

And these are elevator options:

• 0 = no sound
• 1 = big elev stop 1
• 2 = big elev stop 2
• 3 = freight elev stop
• 4 = heavy elev stop
• 5 = rack stop
• 6 = rail stop
• 7 = squeek stop
• 8 = quick stop

Target (target) - When an entity is activated, it triggers the entity with the name specified by Target.
Locked Sound (locked_sound) - Sounds to play when the entity is 'locked'. Options are:

• 0 = None
• 2 = Access Denied
• 8 = Small zap
• 10 = Buzz
• 11 = Buzz Off

Unlocked Sound (unlocked_sound) - Sound to play when entity is 'unlocked'. Options are:

• 4 = Quick Combolock
• 5 = Power Deadbolt 1

• 2 = Security Disengaged
• 3 = Blast Door
• 4 = Fire Door
• 5 = Chemical Door
• 6 = Radiation Door
• 7 = General Containment
• 8 = Maintenance area

FX Amount (renderamt)
FX Color (rendercolor)
Global Entity Name (globalname)
Pitch Roll Yaw (angles)
Speed (speed) - Speed of movement.
Delay before close (wait) - Time to wait before the door closes after opening (-1 makes it stay open)
Lip (lip) - Number of units left after move (the lip value is subtracted from the move distance).
Damage inflicted when blocked (dmg) - How much damage the player receives if he gets stuck between the door and something solid.
Message if triggered (message)
Delay before fire (delay)
Fire on Close (netname)
Health (health) - With a non-zero value here, the door will have to be damaged to this extent to open.
Minimum light level (_minlight)
ZHLT Lightflags (zhlt_lightflags)
Light Origin Target (light_origin)

Flags

• Starts open (1) - Door starts in its 'open' position.
• Don't link (4)
• Passable (8)
• Toggle (32)
• Use only (256) - Player must "use" to open. Enabling this prevents the entity being triggered any other way.
• Monsters can't (512) - Monsters with arms (e.g. zombies, grunts) can't use the door.

Notes

• Giving func_door entity a name will make it locked.
• When activated the door will move it's entire width in the open direction.
• Can be made to act very much like a button...
• The func_door can be made into a simple elevator.
