Come to think of it a teleporter type unit could be very cool.

If not your Team, teleport them out, far enough that they can't just drive back in.
Run once per half-second.
Its called Factory Antihax and it already exists.
Doesnt seem to work perfectly though.

This hax is a hitsphere related issue. The prevent lab hax gadget does not look at units outside the factory as there is a much simpler solution for them.

It actually works every frame. It was initially every half second but looked really weird. The frame update has no noticeable slowdown.

Prevent lab hax works on units inside factories. In this hax the units are just outside of the factory but inside the factory's hit
sphere. I think the sphere is still used for targetting. Someone needs to reduce the size of the sphere.

Well, CA *is* open sourced. If "Its obviously not that hard to fix" why haven't you already submitted a patch to fix the problem?
It will get results faster than whining and complaining.

Maybe at least give a list of units with this problem.
