info_hostage_rescue - Point Entity

For hostage rescue maps (cs_), this entity defines the center of an "invisible sphere" with a 256 units radius. Whenever a hostage (hostage_entity) is inside that sphere, he is rescued.

Notes

• Hostages does not perform "visibility" checks when they touch the invisible sphere. In other words, if there is an obstacle between the hostage and the entity's origin like a wall or the void, the hostage will still be rescued. If you want more "control" of the hostage rescue zone, consider using func_hostage_rescue instead.
• If the level designer did not specified any hostage rescue zone (no func_hostage_rescue and no info_hostage_rescue). Then hostages will be rescued if they are close to any Counter-Terrorist spawn point (distance between the hostage and any info_player_start is less than 256 units).
