1. Usually, all players begin a round in a "start-up" or "holding" area. Would that be a good place to post the server's House Rules on the walls? That way, stickies not sticking to func_door doesn't matter, and nobody can cover up the Rules with sprays.
2. If not, then you ought to make a func_door that looks like a big sign hanging on a wall, and then put your message on that sign brush. Then attach the sign brush to the wall. Tada, you now have House Rules in-map and the whole wall is not a func_door. 3. Can you just make a very thin nodraw brush solid and put it in front of the func_door that has the House Rules on it? Will stickies stick to a nodraw solid? Or perhaps a non-rendering func_brush? ----- Original Message ----- From: Don P <buzza...@gmail.com> Date: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 5:36 pm Subject: [hlmappers] [TF2] Destroying/Knocking Stickies off of Objects To: hlmappers@list.valvesoftware.com > I use func_doors for walls that dont move where I want a surface > that cannot > be defaced by sprays.
