Point Entity

Multiple path_tracks form a path that can be followed by a func_tracktrain. Paths can contain switchable branches, similar to real-world railroad switches. The corresponding entity for func_train is path_corner.

Attributes

• Name (targetname) - Property used to identify entities.
• Pitch Yaw Roll (angles) - Sets the pitch (up / down), yaw (left / right) and roll (bank) respectively. The compass in WorldCraft / Hammer corresponds to Yaw. The settings are not always (or not all) used.
• Next stop target (target) - The name of the next path_track in the path.
• Fire on pass (message) - When a train passes this path_track it will trigger this event.
• Branch path (altpath) - The name of a secondary path_track (see notes).
• Fire on dead-end (netname) - If this path_track is a dead-end (see notes), activate this event on reaching.
• New Train Speed (speed) - As the train passes this point, this speed will be assigned to it.

Flags

• Disabled (1)
• Fire once (2)
• Branch reverse (4)
• Disable train (8)

Notes

• When a path_track is triggered, its Next Stop Target is replaced by its Branch Path value.
• If a path_track's Next Stop target is not defined, or if it has been triggered but has no branch path, it is considered a dead end.
