    Flares

    The default light entity creates omnidirectional lights. To create - a directional flare, use the target_flare entity. Values for a - target_flare are the same as those for a default light, with one + a directional flare, use the fx_flare entity. Values for a + fx_flare are the same as those for a default light, with one small diference: the size of the flare is set through the radius value. The default flare radius is 100. Rotate the entity or set the angle value to point the flare in a different direction.

    - target_flare entities can only be rotated in the XY-plane. + Use the engine option (spawnflag 4) To create a flare that + lights up depending on engine power. +

    + Particles

    - Add a target_engine entity to add an engine exhaust to a ship model. - An engine exhaust always points to the rear (negative X-axis). -

    - An engine is rendered as a pulsating light flare. The size of the flare - can be set through the radius value. The default engine radius is 100. -
