178 * @section Entity offset functions
180 * Offsets should be specified in byte distance from the CBaseEntity
181 * structure, not short (double byte) or integer (four byte) multiples.
182 * It is somewhat common practice to use offsets aligned to their final
183 * type, and thus make sure you are not falling to this error in SourceMod.
184 * For example, if your "integer-aligned" offset was 119, your byte-aligned
185 * offset is 119*4, or 476.
187 * Specifying incorrect offsets or the incorrect data type for an offset
188 * can have fatal consequences. If you are hardcoding offsets, and the
189 * layout of CBaseEntity does not match, you can easily crash the server.
191 * The reasonable bounds for offsets is greater than or equal to 0 and
192 * below 32768. Offsets out of these bounds will throw an error. However,
193 * this does not represent any real range, it is simply a sanity check for
194 * illegal values. Any range outside of the CBaseEntity structure's private
195 * size will cause undefined behaviour or even crash.
199 * Marks an entity as state changed. This can be useful if you set an offset
200 * and wish for it to be immediately changed over the network. By default this
201 * is not done for offset setting functions.
