	Point entity which relays a triggering action. ~~Can be useful~~ when ~~you do not want~~ to trigger an entity ~~directly for whatever reasons~~.		Point entity which relays a triggering action, and overrides the activator entity with itself to the target entity when triggered. It allows you to choose a specific use-type to trigger the target with, and a delay time value for when to trigger the target. These features make it useful for controlling specifically how and when an entity is triggered. See also: [[multi_manager]].
