In order for a building to be constructed the Engineer must have enough [[metal]]. The Engineer has 200 reserve metal to start with, and is consumed upon placing a building. Extra metal can be gained through ammo packs, building [[gibs]] and dispensers. Afterwards he can use his PDA to cosntruct a building. The Engineer can only place his buildings on reasonably flat surfaces with enough space. The Engineer can rotate buildings before deploying them (default key: MOUSE2). Each time the rotate key is pressed, the building is turned 90° counterclockwise. Once a building is placed, the Engineer can hit it with his [[Wrench]] in order to speed up construction. Multiple Engineers can stack this effect. Once a building is fully completed it immediately begins operation. | In order for a building to be constructed the Engineer must have enough [[Metal|metal]].

Like players, buildings have [[health]] and are destroyed when it is reduced to zero. Buildings gain health as they construct, so Engeineers can leave buildings to build themselves, for example leaving a teleporter to construct while they find a spot to build. Players can focus their crosshair on a building to determine its current health just like other players, though weak buildings also display visible signs of damage such as smoke, sparks, and flames. | Like players, buildings have [[health]] and are destroyed when it is reduced to zero.
