Brush Entity

This entity lets you create a platform that will move to its raised position when you walk onto it. It differs from func_plat in that it will also rotate as it moves.

Attributes

• Name (targetname) - Property used to identify entities.
• Render FX (renderfx) - Gives objects special render effects. Think of it as modifying whatever the Render Mode puts out. The options are as follows:

[list]
[li]0 = Normal

• 1 = Slow Pulse
• 2 = Fast Pulse
• 3 = Slow Wide Pulse
• 4 = Fast Wide Pulse
• 5 = Slow Fade Away
• 6 = Fast Fade Away
• 7 = Slow Become Solid
• 8 = Fast Become Solid
• 9 = Slow Strobe
• 10 = Fast Strobe
• 11 = Faster Strobe
• 12 = Slow Flicker
• 13 = Fast Flicker
• 14 = Constant Glow
• 15 = Distort
• 16 = Hologram (Distort and Fade)[/li]

[li]Render Mode (rendermode) - Controls the type of rendering that is used for an object. Options are:

• 0 = Normal
• 1 = Color
• 2 = Texture
• 3 = Glow
• 4 = Solid
• 5 = Additive[/li]

[li]Move Sound (movesnd) - These apply either to door or elevator type entities. For doors, the options are as follows:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = Servo (Sliding)
• 2 = Pneumatic (Sliding)
• 3 = Pneumatic (Rolling)
• 4 = Vacuum
• 5 = Power Hydraulic
• 6 = Large Rollers
• 7 = Track Door
• 8 = Snappy Metal Door

And for elevators:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = big elev 1
• 2 = big elev 2
• 3 = tech elev 1
• 4 = tech elev 2
• 5 = tech elev 3
• 6 = freight elev 1
• 7 = freight elev 2
• 8 = heavy elev
• 9 = rack elev
• 10 = rail elev
• 11 = squeek elev
• 12 = odd elev 1
• 13 = odd elev 2[/li]

[li]Stop Sound (stopsnd) - This property is found in both door and elevator type entities. For doors, the options are:

• 0 = No Sound
• 1 = Clang with brake
• 2 = Clang reverb
• 3 = Ratchet Stop
• 4 = Chunk
• 5 = Light airbrake
• 6 = Metal Slide Stop
• 7 = Metal Lock Stop
• 8 = Snappy Metal Stop

And these are elevator options:

• 0 = no sound
• 1 = big elev stop 1
• 2 = big elev stop 2
• 3 = freight elev stop
• 4 = heavy elev stop
• 5 = rack stop
• 6 = rail stop
• 7 = squeek stop
• 8 = quick stop[/li]

[li]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.[/li]
[li]Global Entity name (globalname)[/li]
[li]FX Amount) (renderamt)[/li]
[li]FX Color (rendercolor)[/li]
[li]Sound Volume (volume) - Volume in the range 0.0 - 1.0.[/li]
[li]ZHLT Lightflags (zhlt_lightflags)[/li]
[li]Light Origin Target (light_origin)[/li]
[li]Speed of rotation (speed)[/li]
[li]Travel Attitude (height) - The distance the object will move.[/li]
[li]Spin Amount (rotation) - This is the distance, in degrees, the platform will rotate between its lowered and raised positions.[/li]
[li]Minimum light level (_minlight)[/li]
[/list]

Flags

• Toggle (1) - If enabled, the platform can be triggered to toggle it between its raised and lowered positions.
• X axis (64) - If enabled, the rotation will be in the X axis.
• Y axis (128) - If enabled, the rotation will be in the Y axis.

Notes

• Rotation defaults to the Z axis if neither of the axis flags is enabled.
