| - | ====== Entity Guide ====== | ||
| - | An entity is an object that has characteristics which are different to the normal world brushes. There are two kinds of entities in Ca3DE. These include brush entities and point entities. | ||

| - | 2. In one of the 2D windows, click where you want to place your entity. A green box will appear where you clicked. This is where the entity will be inserted.\\ | ||

| - | ====== Entity List ====== | ||
| - | This is a list of most of Ca3DE's brush entities, and some of its Point entities. More coming soon. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Brush Entities ===== | ||
| - | Brush entities are world brushes that have extra characeristics. Note: This list is not fully complete. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_wall ==== | ||
| - | This is bascally a normal brush, except they can have transparency or "holes". This entity can be used for lattice, glass, fences etc. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_illusionary ==== | ||
| - | This is a func_wall with no clipping. The player can walk through a func_illusionary, making it useful for secret paths. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_water ==== | ||
| - | This is the entity for water. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_ladder ==== | ||
| - | The player can climb up a func_ladder. Please note that this entity is invisible, so you need to place a textured brush **behind** it. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_breakable ==== | ||
| - | This is a breakable object. You can set the material as glass, wood, metal, flesh, cinder block, ceiling tile, computer, unbreakable glass or rocks. You can also set the strength of the object. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_particle_generator ==== | ||
| - | This entity emits particles. It could be used for fire, water etc. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== func_pushable ==== | ||
| - | This is an object that the player can push around the map. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Point Entities ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== info_player_start ==== | ||
| - | The info_player_start is the spawn point for the character(s). You must have at least one in any map you create, and you must ensure that **every** info_player_start is inside the map. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== PointLight ==== | ||
| - | This is a light to complement the texture area lights. You used to have to put one of these in front of every surface that emitted light, but now you should not need to use this entity much, as any texture that looks like a light will emit light in the game. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Weapons, Ammo and items ==== | ||
| - | //Note: The following entities are specific to the Deathmatch mod.// | ||
| - | These entities are the weapons, ammo and items in the deathmatch mod. These all start with weapon_, ammo_, or item_ | ||
