When compiling a map using the GMod compile tools, my map would have random leaks. The pointfile would show something really dumb like:
[img]http://imgur.com/o1Gz3Q7.jpg[/img]
Obviously there is no leak here. I noticed that whenever I modified something in the map, the place in which the random leak would occur would change completely, usually to a different end of the map.
My workaround is that I move the camera into a position where the grid shows the entire map, do something to the map (usually place an entity and delete it) and then compile. The issue here is that if I make the map even bigger, this will no longer be feasible.
My question therefore is, does anybody know how to fix this issue? It seems to be a problem with VBSP. I suppose I could make the map smaller but I would rather not do that.
Hmm, never had that issue with large maps before. Perhaps you turned that road there into a func_detail, or even a displacement? I doubt it would be something that obvious, but maybe? Maybe you could also provide a compile log so that it'd be a bit more easy to pin point the issue.
I considered that, but it really does work perfectly when the same map is compiled with the above workaround. It's definitely not a func_detail. I tried loading up the map that gets thrown out by VBSP and it is indeed missing everything that isn't in the red circle. I will try and grab some screenshots to prove it.
I need a compile log to understand the root problem.

Apologies for the dim lighting, I haven't got around to that yet. Here is what it looks like and what it should look like.

Boy oh boy do I feel like a complete and total dickhead. I found the problem. Turn off radius culling in Hammer.
I never knew that option existed and I find it so weird that VBSP would respect that setting, but here we are.
For anybody like me who finds this post in the future, it's the button on the toolbar that has an R with a red circle around it.
