info_tfgoal (Team Fortress Classic) Last edited 16 years ago2008-05-04 03:44:32 UTC

Point Entity

Info_tfgoal is the most important entity in TFC. A multidude of effects and game logic can be created with this all-purpose entity, from ammo packs to scoring systems. Info_tfgoal can also be abbreviated as i_t_g. By convention, usually this abbreviation is reserved for brush-based goals, and the full name is used for the point-based version.

Attributes

• Goal initial state (goal_state) - Under Goal initial state' SmartEdit name, it is the initial state of the goal, with these options:

[list]
[li]1 = Active

• 2 = Inactive
• 3 = Removed

If you set this value to Active, the goal will perform its action as soon as the map loads (even before players have joined), and then move to the Inactive state unless it is set to stay active.[/li]
[li]Model path/name.mdl (mdl) - If you wish this goal to be displayed as a model in the game (as is the case with goals used to create ammo packs), give the model's path and filename here. e.g. 'models/backpack.mdl'.[/li]
[li]Targetname of teamcheck goal (teamcheck) - Using this in conjunction with an info_tf_teamcheck allows you to switch the entity's team allegiance when the info_tf_teamcheck changes its team setting. The team_no property must be set to Any (0) if you use this value.[/li]
[li]Has item # (items_allowed) - The player must be carrying this item to use this entity. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]Has item from group # (h_i_g) - The player must be carrying any item from this group to use this entity. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]Hasn't item from group # (hasnt_item_from_group) - To use this entity, the player must not be carrying any item from this group. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If item # has moved (if_item_has_moved) - A player can only use the entity if this item is not in its original spawn location. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If item # hasn't moved (if_item_hasnt_moved) - A player can only use the entity if this item is in its original spawn location. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If goal # active (if_goal_is_active) - Players can only use the entity if this goal is in the active state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If goal # inactive (if_goal_is_inactive) - Players can only use the entity if this goal is in the inactive state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If goal # removed (if_goal_is_removed) - Players can only use the entity if this goal is in the removed state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If group # active (if_group_is_active) - A player can only use the entity if all the goals in this group are in the active state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If group # inactive (if_group_is_inactive) - A player can only use the entity if all the goals in this group are in the inactive state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]If group # removed (if_group_is_removed) - A player can only use the entity if all the goals in this group are in the removed state. Set 0 to ignore this criterion.[/li]
[li]Affect all on Team (maxammo_shells) - This allows an entity's effects (giving ammo, taking health, etc.) to be performed on an entire team rather than just the Activating Player. Options are:

• 0 = Disabled
• 1 = Blue
• 2 = Red
• 3 = Yellow
• 4 = Green[/li]

• 0 = Disabled
• 1 = Blue
• 2 = Red
• 3 = Yellow
• 4 = Green[/li]

[li]If all goals in group # active... (all_active) - When activated, the entity will check to see if all goals in a given group are active. If so, it will activate another goal, which is specified by last_impulse.[/li]

[li]Remove item from APA (axhitme) - The Item # of an item_tfgoal entity. When the entity is activated, if the Activating Player is carrying the specified item, it will be removed from him. What happens to it then is determined by the Goal Activation property of the item.[/li]
