		+	at_warning -

		+	== Visibility Functions ==
		+	=== EngFunc_CheckVisibility ===
		+	This function is used to check if an entity is in your [[PVS]].
		+
		+	'''It can be used on all entities except worldspawn.'''
		+
		+	==== Usage ====
		+	This function has a parameter that must be obtained in a special way, the ''pset'' parameter.
		+	'''Note:''' The parameter is player only, that means that if you get pset for example for a player that has the id ''1''. When you use this function on an entity it will check whether that entity is in [[PVS]] of the Player id ''1''.

		+
		+	=== EngFunc_MoveToOrigin ===
		+	Moves an entity a defined distance toward a coordinate.
		+
		+	If the distance between Entity and Destination is less than the required distance, the entity will pass over that point.
		+
		+	==== Usage ====
		+	<pawn>engfunc(EngFunc_MoveToOrigin, iEnt, Float:Destination[3], Float:Distance, iMoveType)</pawn>
		+
		+	* iEnt = Entity index
		+	* Destination[3] = A Coordinate toward which the entity moves
		+	* Distance = The distance to move the entity
		+	* iMoveType = This is the MOVE_* option used for monsters and players to change the behaviour of the movement
		+
		+	Move type possible values:
		+
		+	#define MOVE_NORMAL 0 // normal move in the direction monster is facing
		+	#define MOVE_STRAFE 1 // moves in direction specified, no matter which way monster is facing
		+	#define MOVE_STUCK_DIST 32 // if a monster can't step this far, it is stuck.
		+	#define MOVE_START_TURN_DIST 64 // when this far away from moveGoal, start turning to face next goal
		+
		+	==== Caveats ====
		+
		+	* iEnt must be on ground
		+	* If there's an object closer than Distance that iEnt could collide then the movement is not done
		+	* If there's a ramp, it works like an object and the movement is not done
