<span class="anchor" id="line-50"></span><ul><li style="list-style-type:none">Draws a line from effect origin using the effect normal. This line projects until it hits a wall.

End origin can also be affected by target_null’s in the level editor. An effect file that uses end origin targeting a target_null will instead project to the target_null instead of projecting until it hits a surface.

<span class="anchor" id="line-56"></span><ul><li style="list-style-type:none">This will ensure even space between sprites throughout the origin. Mainly used for end origin effects so that particles do not bias one side. <span class="anchor" id="line-57"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-58"></span></li></ul><p class="line867">

<span class="anchor" id="line-59"></span><ul><li style="list-style-type:none">This is the default mode for all effects and will play based upon projectile impact surface, func_fx placement in the level editor or bone on an .md5mesh. <span class="anchor" id="line-60"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-61"></span></li></ul><p class="line867"><span class="anchor" id="normalfromcenterorsurface"></span> <span class="anchor" id="line-62"></span>

<span class="anchor" id="line-63"></span><ul><li style="list-style-type:none"><p class="line862">This will generate the forward normal as the center of an origin spread (center of a sphere/shape origin), or the surface of the an origin if <a href="#spawnonsurface">spawn on surface</a> is checked. <span class="anchor" id="line-64"></span></li></ul><p class="line867"><span class="anchor" id="line-65"></span><pre>Example: An origin range of –10 min and 50 max for Forward, Left and Up will have a ‘center’ of the effect that is not the effect origin.
