I'm working on a passtime map, and I ran into an issue that's got me stumped. When ran, the map loads an older version, and there's square chunks that are render and de-render everywhere.

Overlay touching too many faces (touching 69, max 64)
Overlay overlays/logo_blue_white at 0.0 -5824.0 1680.0

Fix this issue, it's a compile killing one.

I haven't touched that overlay in many updates, wonder why it's suddenly throwing errors. Also, I have it only on one face, a flat wall. Or is it saying some other type of "face"?

If it is a very large wall made up of a single brush, it will be cut into smaller brushes during the compile process or something (so many additional faces will be added)

Any way I can stop that from happening?
Split the big wall up into smaller brushes using the clip tool, or put it on a smaller brush that you put in front of the bigger one
