Generally exits only blow up by themselves if they are in areas where the teleporter height plus the player height is greater than the distance between the floor and ceiling.

This is to prevent teleporter griefing, which caused players to get stuck if teleporters were placed in low-ceiling areas.

That doesn't sound like normal behavior, then. I'm not sure why they'd blow up, then.

I know I've seen them blow up if you place them too close to certain walls, but if nothing's nearby... no idea.

I agree with Powerlord. You have to be doing some sort of bad placement as that's the only reason the exit blows up automatically like that. There's no way to disable it that I know of. It's there to prevent players from getting stuck.

And even then, it doesn't always work. Which is why Valve patched PL_Upward yesterday or so I assume.
