Checking for leaks

lucky · Aug 25, 2009

If I want to make sure none of my areaportals have leaks and whatnot, do I need to VIS compile or will BSP be able to tell me?

compile log will say.

Go to your View>pointfile.

This loads up the tiny zigzag red line so you can trace it to your leak suspect.

So... I do need to compile with VIS on?

I would assume so.

:O what the hell.... all my areaportals lost their func_areaportal ties

I've had that "wtf now it's just a brush" experience before with single portals.

I try to avoid the

button with brush entities because it selects the brush itself only and not the entity, leading to weird results especially if you copy-paste.

Oh, thank you very much. How annoying D :

and no, it turns out just a BSP compile works
