   2 Automatically make a radar with every compile of a map you do:
   3
   4 Specify the layout in hammer by adding brushes to a visgroup named 'tar_layout', and Auto Radar will do the rest.

  32 ### Configuration:
  33 ![](https://i.imgur.com/Fd046ZK.png)
  34
  35 Add a tar_config entity to your map. This defines your radars settings. It is not needed, but allows you to customize it.
  36
  37 #### Examples of the different effects:

  40 ### Detected Visgroups:
  41 ![Visgroup example](https://i.imgur.com/fXozJkj.png)
  42
  43 Brushes, displacements, entity brushes and prop_statics which are inside visgroups with these names will change the final radar in different ways. The only one required is `tar_layout` and should define your maps playable space.
  44
  45 | Visgroup name | What it does                                            |
  46 |---------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
  47 | tar_layout   | specifies the layout of the map (the floor)             |
  48 | tar_mask | brushes that should subtract from the layout of the map, use this on walls |
  49 | tar_cover    | brushes that should show up as cover in the radar    |
  50
  51 ### Detected Entities:
  52 ![](https://i.imgur.com/PyPuPh5.png)
  53
  54 Entities with these classnames get picked up by Auto Radar. They are not required, and the values will otherwise be automatically set.
  55
  56 | Entity name     | What it does                                  |
  57 |-----------------|-----------------------------------------------|
  58 | tar_min | Overrides the minimum height value of the map (place it at the lowest part of your map) |
  59 | tar_max | Overrides the maximum height value (place it at the top of your map) |
  60
  61 ### Generating:
