[li]FX Color (rendercolor)[/li]
[li]ZHLT Lightflags (zhlt_lightflags)[/li]
[li]Light Origin Target (light_origin)[/li]
[li]Rotation Speed (speed) - This is the maximum speed the rotating object will acheive.[/li]
[li]Volume (volume) - Sound volume from 0 to 10 (10 loudest).[/li]
[li]Friction (fanfriction) - If the Acc/Dcc flag is enabled, this value determines the time it takes to reach full speed or to stop after being triggered.[/li]
[li]Fan Sounds (sounds) - The sound to make while moving. Values:
0 = no sound
1 = fast whine
2 = slow rush
3 = medium rickety
4 = fast beating

[li]Damage inflicted when blocked (dmg) - If the player blocks the entity's movement, this amount of damage will be dealt.[/li]
[/list]

Flags

• Start On (1)
• Reverse Direction (2) - Set this flag to make the brush turn in the opposite direction.
• X axis (4) - If enabled, the rotation will be in the X axis.
• Y axis (8) - If enabled, the rotation will be in the Y axis.
• Acc/Dcc (16) - If enabled, the entity will accelerate and decelerate from maximum speed based on the Friction property.
• Fan Pain (32) - With this enabled, the player will be hurt when coming into contact with the brush.
• Not Solid (64)
• Small Radius (128) - Sets sound range to low.
• Medium Radius (256) - Sets sound range to medium.
• Large Radius (512) - Sets sound range to high.

Notes

• Often used to create fans.

• An origin brush needs to be part of the entity to specify its axis of rotation.
