Anyone know the cheat code for spawning a radio?
I have another cheat code questiong. In chamber 6, at the start of the game, there is a time in which you push a button. The button is susposed to make a cube come out of the cube dropper, but instead comes out "Garbage", or atleast that's what GLaDOS calls it. One of the things that comes out of the cube dropper is a radio, from Portal 1. Now that i know it's in the game files, how do I spawn it? Anyone know the cheat code?

I figured it out a long time ago. You CAN spawn a radio. :steamhappy:

Soo... Whats the command?

Well... here's what I would do.

Catch the radio and use the command "ent_remove" when looking at it. The radio will disappear and the console will tell you what you removed. When you see it, copy it and find the valve software site. Once you find the site and the page, there should be a description of various console commands and stats on the radio.

Or, you could search google for "portal radio" and do it that way. Google usually knows.

what is the command to spawn the radio?!

Well... There is none. It's not an entity, it's a set of entities linked to a prop by the engine. You can only create them with a level editor.

I didn't think that method counted at the time, as the prop alone cannot play radio music or ratman transmissions. In addition, prop_dynamic_create doesn't spawn it with physics that you can pick up or toss, you'd want to use props_physics_create for that.
