there is a map glitch in the mann manor map that allows enginers to build buildings in respawn. is there a way to make those buildings autodestruct when they lay them down? i know there is a similar exploit on cp_egypt where people build in places they aren't supposed to but this one is not as well known.

If you know the coordinates, you can use a plugin to add a func_nobuild to that area, which would prevent them from building there. Remember that func_nobuild needs to be taller than the player (plus jump height?).

I know some example code is in another thread, but one of them uses events not present in TF2 and the other uses hard-coded coordinates.

do you know how to get cordinates ? I would do it later.

GetClientEyePosition will give you their coordinates at eye level which is... 64 hammer units up if they're not ducking?

Actually, it might be a good idea to get a player's eye height, then use a traceray to go straight down (I think up-down is the first value of an angle vector, so { -90, 0, 0 } ?) until you hit world geometry (MASK_SOLID ?).

Edit: Whoops, the player's own model is considered solid, so you need to filter it as documented on the comments in the main TraceRay docs.
