Change Map permissions

ok, so this may seem weird, but this was recently brought to my attention, and I don't like the idea of it. is it possible to disable maps from using ulx commands (since they have no need to really anyway)?

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I'll have to run this by Megiddo since he's a little more familiar with this than me, but unfortunately I don't think there's anything we can do to prevent this directly, since I think when any user presses this button (hopefully an admin), it runs a command via their console. I don't think there is a way to detect where the command was run.

However, (again, I'll have to run this by Megiddo :P) it may be possible to have ULX check the map for lua_run entities, and if possible, scan them for ULX commands. I think this sounds feasible and would be fairly easy to implement.

EDIT: If you'd like to respond to that thread for me, that would be helpful. Unless I'm mistaken, we should be able to prevent things like this in the future for ULX.
