Info_objective entities provide objective information to the player during the game such as;

  • The objective description the player will see in the limbo menu and in game.
  • The icon to display in the world
  • The icon and objective number on the command map

Their position in the world, just like the spawn masters, determine the objective position on the command map. An info_objective has been placed under each of the four objectives in the example map.
