## AddOutput-related
`AddOutput` is normally used for adding outputs, but it's also capable of setting any keyvalue after the entity has spawned. This is used to change several keyvalues that could not be changed manually by other means after spawning.
`AddOutput` (an existing input) is normally used for adding outputs, but it's also capable of setting any keyvalue after the entity has spawned. This is used to change several keyvalues that could not be changed manually by other means after spawning.
Mapbase adds corresponding inputs to some keyvalues, meaning `AddOutput` wouldn't need to be used in those cases anymore, but not every keyvalue has a corresponding input and `AddOutput` should continue to be standard practice. In fact, using `AddOutput` has been made more flexible thanks to the new `logic_format` entity, which allows the key and value to be set independently.
| Entity/Entities | KeyValue | New Input(s) | Details |
|:-------------:|:-------------:|:-------------:|:------------- |
| All Entities | `spawnflags` | AddSpawnFlags, RemoveSpawnFlags | Sets an entity's spawnflags. |
| All Entities | `rendermode` | SetRenderMode | Sets an entity's render mode. |
| All Entities | `renderfx` | SetRenderFX | Sets an entity's render FX. |
| All Entities | `effects` | AddEffects, RemoveEffects | Sets an entity's effect flags. |
| npc_combine_s | `numgrenades` | SetGrenades, AddGrenades | Sets a soldier's number of grenades. |
| npc_combine_s | `tacticalvariant` | SetTacticalVariant | Sets a soldier's tactical variant. |
