• "target" : Target when triggered.
• "killtarget" : Target to kill when triggered.
• "delay" : Time in seconds until it triggers its target.

SPAWNFLAGS

• TA_USEONCE (1) : Remove itself from the level permanently when activated.

Respawn()

void trigger_auto::Respawn ( void  )

virtual

Server: Called when the entity first spawns or when game-logic requests the entity to return to its original spawn state.

Reimplemented from NSPointTrigger.

Restore()

void trigger_auto::Restore ( string  strKey, string  strValue  )

virtual

Similar to NSIO::SpawnKey but for save-game fields.

Whatever you write into file handles within your NSIO::Save() method needs to be read back in here.

Reimplemented from NSPointTrigger.

RestoreComplete()

void trigger_auto::RestoreComplete ( void  )

virtual

Called when the entity has been successfully restored from a savegame file.

Reimplemented from NSIO.

Save()

void trigger_auto::Save ( float  handle )

virtual

Handles saving a copy of this entity to a given filehandle.

Within you want to use the NSIO::SaveFloat() etc. methods to write the internal member attributes to the specified file handle.

Reimplemented from NSPointTrigger.

SpawnKey()

void trigger_auto::SpawnKey ( string  strKey, string  strValue  )

virtual

This method handles entity key/value pairs on map load.

You can easily convert the strValue parameter using the ReadFloat etc. methods that are part of NSIO.

Reimplemented from NSPointTrigger.
