Are you referring to the round not so long ago?I witnessed this at the Bridge last stand a doc got its head blown off a sentry. Did you have your ID in PDA?
"Young Carrier (920) (follow) hisses, "Shut up both of you or we aren't going to invade disneyland."

Long time ago, I, Ka'Torag-na Halkrath, Skilled Master Hunter Of Prey, Unleashed an unspeakable evil upon Xenos and Humans! But a foolish Xeno Hunter wielder of robustness stepped forth and opposed me. Before the final blow was struck, I tore a gate of Salt of Solitude and flung em into the world of CM, and took out their Facehugger Capabilities! Now, this Xeno Fool seeks to return the favour, and undo my evil reign and of many other predator predecessors!

When your ID is in a PDA, the IFF doesn't work as intended. So sentries and mines can screw you over.

Sentries take into account PDAs. I've also rewritten the code recently, so it should work fine regardless.
