Toss Buildings
Pretty simple idea: Engi can now throw his buildings while carrying them. To throw buildings, press your Reload key. They will construct while in air, bounce off walls and finally be usable at the desitnation. You can't throw during Waiting For Players, If a building lands in a spawn room or sticks into other things, it will blow up.
Credits to zen for the idea

Custom Attribute
This plugin also works as custom attribute. It is recommendedto use
Hidden dev attributes, but
custom attributes is also supported.
I'm not too familiar with hidden dev attributes, but the entry should probably look something like this (Don't forget to give it a unique id aka number somewhere above 4000):
PHP Code:
//Allows to throw buildings as engi
"4269"
{
"name" "toss buildings"
"attribute_class" "toss buildings"
"description_format" "value_is_additive"
"stored_as_integer" "1"
}
Add the "
toss buildings" attribute to the building tool (base item def index
28) with the following values (add up to combine):
1 - Dispenser , 2 - Teleporter , 4 - Sentrygun.
The attribute overrides the config value.
Please tell me if somethings not working with that, I still might have to adjust some checks.
Library
Other plugins can listen to buildings being tossed and landing. For more info check the include. If you block a building from being tossed, maybe tell the player why it's blocked (UX is important, mmkay).
Don't forget to to add the gamedata file
