The map was Volcano and somehow one of the GDIs got a beacon inside our powerplant. It was "embedded" into a purchase terminal. None of the engineers, including myself, could disarm it because the game kept highlighting the purchase terminal assuming we wanted to buy something.

I think what he did was jump onto a small lip that is part of the bottom half of the terminal. Its enough surface to drop a beacon onto.

This type of beacon placement really bothers me. I hope it's considered abuse of a bug, since I can be an engineer standing right next to it.. looking at it, but still can't disarm it.
