logic_relay

Code classes:

• CLogicRelay
• CLogicalEntity
• CServerOnlyEntity
• CBaseEntity (all ents)

logic_relay is a point entity present in all Source games. It fires outputs when told to, acting as a sort of middleman for IO. It's often used to organize map logic. It can be told to enable and disable itself, and cancel delayed inputs. The entity will prevent itself from firing while any delayed inputs are waiting to go through, meaning it has an optional cooldown on how often it can fire.

Flags

• 1: Only trigger once - Makes the entity remove itself after firing either output.

• 2: Allow fast retrigger - If the entity has any delayed inputs, this flag will allow it to refire even if those inputs have not fully sent.

Keyvalues

Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>

Stay inactive until Enabled.

Inputs

Trigger

Makes OnTrigger fire.

CancelPending

Cancels any delayed inputs from this entity which haven't gone through.

EnableRefire (Not in FGD)

Disable

Toggle

If on, turn off. If off, turn on.
