Description Marc H. Thoben 2006-06-07 13:30:49 EDT
Yesterday I played the map tremor on a #DB@ server whose name I forgot. Right outside the default human base there is that box and humans managed to build a turret right inside of it. The turret was able to damage passing aliens, but no alien was able to hit it. I joined humans to deconstruct that turret, but I couldn't. I also could not damage it, although friendly fire was enabled.

It's because the model is drawing in the wrong place.  The turret is actually on top of the boxes.  If you jump up there you can impress you friends with your amazing levetation abilities.

This can happen with all buildables (aliens too).  You can still decon or damage them, you just need to aim above where you see them.

Yes, it's a cgame fix. You won't see the effects until a new cgame is released.
