Hammers a bitch, nuff said

I'm getting sick and tired of fixing crap in hammer. Its problem after problem after problem.

heres the latest issiue.

Some props are not showing up claiming they are "out of bounds" even though they are in the center. Also theres a huge brush in the middle of one room that doesnt show up in hammer.

Few things in compile:

^ came before anything else, and is usually the problem that causes everything else.

fix the leak, and most other stuff will go away.

if you cant find where the leak is, goto Map, Load Pointfile.  it should load a line somewhere on the map (in hammer).  follow it from one end to the other to try and find it. (sometimes they are rediculously long and ard to follow)

Ol Panfrie jumping back into the Mappers Den eh.

Also, the problem with the portals may be caused by some complex geometry that creates some rather odd spaces.  Try making the stated geometry func_detail if possible.

I had this same issue, I had a prop that stuck 1 square outsied of the brush and caused a leak. I also had a brush that I tweated with the vertex tool and it caused a wierd blur of texture across where it wasnt even connected too. I just retweaked it so it landed on the grid and all was good.
