How does magnetic tool work?
I mean:
How does magnetic tool know that two entities had just touched?
I'm trying to make a tool that applies constraint.Weld when two entities touch (like magnetic tool works I believe) but I don't know how to trigger that two entities touched together.

GOD, thank you.
EDIT: Isn't what I wanted.
Wiki said:
This hook is not called right before two entities collide, but simply to poll if they should collide when they are about to touch each other.
I need to know when they are going to collide, not when they are near (what is happening).
[lua]function ENT:PhysicsCollide(data, phys)[/lua]
This function is not in the wiki.
It should be declared shared, as far as I know.
Look at Mad Cow's Realistic CS:S weapons. You'll be interested in the incendiary grenade.
But this is used to make a SENT, and I want to magnet two entities without the need of being scripted entities, like magnetic tool does.

The tool just replaces the selected entities, with phys_magnet entities.
Magnets have never worked for me. Didn't know that they ever did for anyone else.

If two magnetised ents touch, they weld. Nothing else.
