console destroyed sapper at round change

Not a Noob
Slight grievance with the scoring systems as when playing engineer any buildings you have made during the round will be destroyed on round change causing a "lost" in hxs score. While I know this isnt a huge issue, as the score is net 0 with the previous 2 points gained on building, it is still a little annoying. I understand how a point inflation could also be caused by a player building and destroying their own gear repetitively, I just wish there was a work around for that too as it promotes a slightly more sluggish play style with engine backtracking in regards to moving up gear and the hx scoring.

Not sure if there is a way to change this but I thought I would ask.
 
Yes. the destruction at round end probably shouldn't be reported as "user destroyed". Unfortunately I'm not sure where exactly this is determined (TF2C code or the logging plugin) so hopefully someone more familiar with that can chime in.
 
isn't it something to do with jump pads? i dont think the score plugin knows what they are and labels them as "sappers" as a fallback

i main engie and i have abt 30k points last i checked (though i dont actively play anymore) if you're playing well and getting lots of kills, the loss from buildings getting deleted is irrelevant. i think it's only like 4-6 points on average, you can easily get 3x that figure with basic gameplay
 
Maybe but that would seem odd. Generally the logging plugin takes literals for the event messages and compares them against known items in the system. Unknown entities generally just don't register an event or alter points
