info_node_link_controller

Point Entity

An entity that controls all connections between nodes that intersect the controller's volume. This allows for mass enabling/disabling of all node connections through a volume.

Keyvalues

  • Initial State (initialstate) <Choices>

    • Off - navigation between the nodes is disabled
    • On - navigation between the nodes is enabled

  • Allow Pass When Off (AllowUse) <String>
    Entity or class to allow passage even when node is off.

  • Invert exclusion rules (InvertAllow) <Boolean>
    Allowed entity is the only entity NOT allowed when this is checked.

  • Priority (priority) <Choices>

    • Normal
    • Use As Last Resort

  • Entity Scripts (vscripts) <ScriptList>
    Name(s) of script files that are executed after all entities have spawned.

  • Name (targetname) <TargetSource>
    The name that other entities refer to this entity by.

  • Mins (mins) <Vector>

  • Maxs (maxs) <Vector>

  • Use Larger Radius (for air links) (useairlinkradius) <Boolean>
    Check this if this controller is intended to control air links. Air links connect using a larger search radius so leaving this unchecked might miss some air links.
