trigger_cdaudio - Brush Entity

This entity allows you to play a specific CD track when the player touches it or when triggered. A point entity equivalent is available as target_cdaudio.

Attributes

• Name (targetname) - Property used to identify entities.
• Track # (health) - Which track to play. The track numbers map to the following MP3 files in the current mod's media folder:

Flags

• None.

Notes

• This entity removes itself when the track starts playing.
• This entity basically issues cd play # or cd stop commands to the client.
• gamestartup.mp3 will start playing as soon as the game starts (this includes the main menu) if present, and will keep playing until a target_cdaudio or trigger_cdaudio stops or starts another track (or one of the command above is issued).
• While this entity can be used in multiplayer, only the first player will be impacted (even if the entity is triggered by another player).
• Opposing Force and Blue Shift have their own soundtracks, but only to track 20. The corresponding file names are identical, but their contents can be different between each other (and certainly different from Half-Life's soundtrack.)
