Hot_Potato

So it appears there actually are some more left-over test elements.

Code: Select all
hot_potato
hot_potato_catcher
hot_potato_socket
hot_potato_spawner

Found these with the "dumpentityfactories" command. They work basically the same as the glass futbol entities, except that hot_potatos explode on contact with surfaces. They still use futbol models, and can be carried by the player. When put into and taken from the socket/catcher (those entities seem to be identical), the prop_button ding noises play.

There's an old map called antimatter that I think uses them unless it's just source ents. It also has a futbol reskin.
