This entity lets you create a platform that will move to its raised position when the player walks onto it.

- Global Entity name (globalname)
- FX Amount (renderamt)
- FX Color (rendercolor)
- Sound Volume (volume) - Volume in the range 0.0 < vol ≤ 1.0. Defaults to 0.85.
- ZHLT Lightflags (zhlt_lightflags)
- Light Origin Target (light_origin)
- Travel Altitude (height) - The distance the platform will move. See notes on valid ranges.
- Minimum Light level (_minlight)
Flags
- Toggle (1) - If enabled, the platform only moves when triggered by other entities, toggling it between its raised and lowered positions.
Notes
- Can be used to make simple elevators.
-
Travel Attitude (height) defaults to the height of the entity brushwork (aka bounding box) and will spawn the platform shifted 8u upward. You can construct the brushwork to be the same height as the intended travel height (+8u to make it flush) so that you can skip on [re]calculating the travel height manually. You can do this without solid brushwork by using the boundingbox textured brush (pictured right).
- Although Travel Attitude (height) may say 'can be negative' in SmartEdit mode, it can't. Doing so results in host_error backward mins/maxs error. See next point.
- Setting the Toggle (1) flag spawns the entity on its raised position. When toggled, it moves down from the spawn position. In this case Travel Attitude (height) can be negative to get it to move up when toggled.
- If Toggle (1) is not set, the game creates a trigger field on top of the platform at spawn. When players walk into this trigger, the platform moves. The dimensions of this field is based on the bounding box of the entity so non-rectangular platforms might behave oddly. The trigger field is offset 25u horizontally into the bounding box and 8u high.
- If Toggle (1) is not set, the platform moves down automatically after 3 seconds. There is no way to set this delay in vanilla Half-Life (
wait
keyvalue is ignored).

- Targetname of teamcheck goal (teamcheck) - Using this in conjunction with an info_tf_teamcheck allows you to switch the entity's team allegiance when the info_tf_teamcheck changes its team setting. The team_no property must be set to Any (0) if you use this value.
