    • Since Sourcebox, white cubes spawn in all source games
    • Clicking the cube in Sourcebox spawns a second one

    • Unplugging the controller shows a spinning white cube
  • Prop properties
    • models/srcbox.mdl
      - Appears to be based on the hammer placeholder prop cube
    • Physics prop with no special functions, sounds, logic
    • Has an "interior" that crashes the games it spawns in when looked at

    • May be related to Eida's pink cube in Spise5
    • May be Eida's pink cube, appearing pink in the source void
      • "Interior" tied to rendering logic
  • Cube Capture (crashpacket)
    • Crashes in very specific scenarios
      • Shot with AWP in CSS
      • gbombs hydrogen bomb in gmod
      • Physics glitches
    • Data export
  • Questions
    • How does cube capture work when there are multiple cubes?
  • In the visualization, the entire radius of the point of interest is suddenly taken up by a Cube
  • When cube capture is triggered, does the cube "capture" the entire area in a map?

#theory The white cube is a kind of portable, deployable skybox that can partition a space into a container. #todo portaltrap, interior/exterior
