This is the one tool texture that i dont understand, but have seen it be used in Source maps before (cs_assault) and just wanted to know what it does. I have a educated guess, but i shant post incase im really off with the guess :p

Hopefully someone can shine some light on this if possible :)

It's completely black in that it isn't illuminated by lighting in your map. (To quote the Source Dev Wiki it is "unaffected by light")

Oh, and it BLEEDS.

Hopefully someone can shine some light on this if possible :)
Strangely relevant.

Edit: I might add it is sometimes useful as a cordon texture.

lol i realised the unintended pun after i posted :)

I thought as much, i did look on VDC, but was searching for toolsblack rather than the actual texture. Thanks for confirming :)
