    does anybody know how to prevent the comm from building in certain locations say like via a brush or something that does not require you change the terrain ? there are a few spots i need to stop players from building but dont want to wipe out the way it looks

    I don't think this is possible in the current version, we'll just have to hang tight till 1.06.

    The closest thing is the brush-based emp_eng_restrict_(faction) entity. But that seems to only affect where engineers can build.

    Maybe put an invisible brush above where you want blocked out, and make it too rough to build on.

    Well, make the invis block just high enough so that players and vechicles can get under it. And make some invisible blocks at random points on top of the main one, because buildings can be build on invisible brushes. Just make it rougn enough so nothing can be build there. Or, just extend the brush up to the skybox.

    This will block bullets and, in the future, aircraft.

    well ok the area it self is a area that will not be used for anything its just somebody can waste money to build there if they dont know, i dont want to alter the landscape because it looks fine :| but ill just toss some random invis blocks there and for the rest of the areas all have to come up with some crafty stuff.. also a few trees .. :)

    There's a new brush entity in 1.06 that prevents commanders from building.
