func_forcefield is a brush entity available in Team Fortress 2 Team Fortress 2. Its one of the few brush entities to have team filtered collisions, alongside func_respawnroomvisualizer. All teams but the team this brush entity belongs to, are blocked by it. This entity (func_forcefield) remains visible to both teams regardless of distance.

Despite the render quirk, the entity still finds moments with its team filtered collision keyvalue, often when users edit entities of an already compiled map. Some methods involved are lump file patching or SourceMod plugins.
