That sounds pretty easy to do, although I'm pretty sure you'd have to use a
Metamod plugin to get it to work right. If you have the Half-Life SDK you
can open "X:\SDK\Multiplayer Source\common\in_buttons.h". That file contains
a number of #define's for buttons. Notice "#define IN_USE (1 << 5)". I
think you could use something like the code below in a Metamod plugin to
prevent users from using the "use" button. Of course, I could be way off.
This is just to give you an idea of what to do.
// Keep in mind none of this code has been tested or even compiled, so
experiment with it if it doesn't work at first.
//....
void PlayerPreThink (edict_t *pEntity)
{
if (!FStrEq(STRING(pEntity->v.netname), "") &&
(FStrEq(STRING(pEntity->v.classname), "player"))) {
if (pEntity->v.button & (IN_USE)) {
pEntity->v.button = 0;
}
}
RETURN_META (MRES_IGNORED);
}
//...
