trigger_transition - Brush Entity

This entity creates an area in which the player must be for an associated trigger_changelevel to work.

Attributes

• Name (targetname) - Property used to identify entities. Must be identical to that of the info_landmark in the same setup.

Notes

• The transition area is the bounding box of this entity. Therefore it should only be a single cuboid.
• This entity is used on change level setups where a trigger_changelevel is being triggered by another entity instead of (or in addition to) the player walking into it. This makes sure the transition only happens when the player is in the transition area at the moment of trigger, and aborts the level change if they aren't. The usual use cases include a level change in an elevator or in a hallway flanked by 2 doors (like an airlock); in both cases the doors' "fire on close" triggers the trigger_changelevel which succeeds if the player is in the elevator or airlock and fails if they're outside.
• This entity's targetname must be identical to that of the info_landmark in the same setup, otherwise it won't work.
