CS:S Map Help

[IOStream]

I've been looking around for tutorials and things to aid in my learning of Hammer, but it seems as though I'm ether finding old Tuts, or perhaps I'm missing entities. Example, in trying to make a buyzone for a team, I cannot find the func_buyzone entity. The only things I have with the "func_" before them are func_fish_pool, func_ladderendpoint, and func_useableladder. Could someone help me out.. thanks!

Func_buyzone, and many other entities, are brush entities, meaning they are volumetric effects that require a brush to define them. Make a brush covering the volume in which you want the effect to occur, select that brush, and press CTRL-T.

I use the trigger brush, for ladders and buy_zone it is func_buyzone, but you ctrl-t on a brush or a box you made, it will not work unless you have it a trigger.

Oh, ok.. I figured that I had to define some sort of area, but I wasn't sure how to do it. That makes sence that its a brush though. Thanks for the help.
