Code classes:

point_proximity_sensor is a point entity present in all Source games. It records the distance between it and another entity.

Flags[edit | edit source]

  • 1: Test the distance as measured along the axis specified by our direction - Instead of outputting the distance from this entity to the target, the entity outputs the length of an intersecting line going in the direction of Pitch Yaw Roll that extends until it meets another imaginary line perpendicular to it which intersects the Target Entity. Useful for telling if something has crossed a certain latitude/longitude/altitude without making huge triggers.

Keyvalues[edit | edit source]
