Weapon slam

This Page contains informations about an Obsidian Conflict Entity, which means it is only availible for Obsidian Conflict or rather in that form it is explained.

Entity description

Selectable Lightweight Attack Munition. It can be placed upon any surface for use as a tripwire explosive. Alternatively, it can also be thrown and detonated by remote.

The player must be careful when using this weapon, since it can trigger the SLAM if it touches the laser, or if the SLAM is shot/triggered.

Keyvalues

Weapon:

NewFade:

• Start Fade Dist/Pixels <float>

Distance at which the prop starts to fade (<0 = use fademaxdist). If 'Screen Space Fade' is selected, this represents the number of pixels wide covered by the prop when it starts to fade.

• End Fade Dist/Pixels <float>

Maximum distance at which the prop is visible (0 = don't fade out). If 'Screen Space Fade' is selected, this represents the *minimum* number of pixels wide covered by the prop when it fades.

• Fade Scale <float>

If you specify a fade in the worldspawn, or if the engine is running under dx7, then the engine will forcibly fade out props even if fademindist/fademaxdist isn't specified. This scale factor gives you some control over the fade. Using 0 here turns off the forcible fades.

• Pitch Yaw Roll (Y Z X) <angle>

This entity's angular orientation in the world.
