Member Function Documentation

CanSpawn()

bool func_lod::CanSpawn ( bool  clientSide )

virtual

Returns if this entity can spawned from the map file.

Parameters

clientSide

If it's being spawned on the client-side.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

predraw()

float func_lod::predraw ( void  )

virtual

Reimplemented from NSRenderableEntity.

Respawn()

void func_lod::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 NSRenderableEntity.

SendEntity()

float func_lod::SendEntity ( entity  , float    )

virtual

Called by the engine whenever we need to send a client an update about this entity.

Reimplemented from NSRenderableEntity.

Spawned()

void func_lod::Spawned ( void  )

virtual

Called when the entity is fulled initialized.

Any spawn key/value info pairs have already been dealt with. So now we can make full decisions on the entity. Always make sure to call super::Spawned(); inside your method when overriding.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

SpawnKey()

void func_lod::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 NSRenderableEntity.
