there might be a longcat infestation.
Open the entity window (press l) and search for any longcats in there, press backspace to delete them.

Which map does this happen on?

There is a bug that causes this to happen if a brush has the health key set.

I'm experiencing this "Hidden Node" problem.
http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=9926.0
( .map file included in the .pk3 download)

i opened the .map file in a text editor.
I erased all HEALTH values (only found them in doors, not brushes)
recompiled. 
Problem still exists.
the problem only effects the human nodes, not the aliens spawns in my map.

Any other suggestions?

Hit 'M' while in radiant, and check over all your entities.
Title: Re: 1 spawn remaining.............

first thing i did.
i also erased all spawns and compiled but a human spawn is in the map.
i also checked all entities (not just brushes) for invalid keys.

right now i'm doing a piece by piece deletion and compilation to find the problem.
it may take a few years.

found it. problem solved.
it didn't like 2 hidden doors i used to trigger some local ambient sound.
have to resort to the glitchy target_speaker.
v2b will be released soon.

my problem with a ghost node was caused by 2 doors that the map didn't agree with.
there were 2 solutions for this:
1 - delete the doors
2 - because the problem appeared to be caused by the door touching the void, reboxing the entire map could solve it.  however it would result in an incredibly long vis time.

Entities should never touch void. And why not just make a box around where the doors are?

yea just make a little room surrounding them...then u dont have to use the speakers, and u dont have issues...

Entities should never touch void. And why not just make a box around where the doors are?

i use entities in void all the time.  the only conflict seems to be when they start IN and OUT of the void instead of one or the other.

for example - the easter egg in tunnel_vb2:
when a dretch enters the doors, it triggers another door made of 2 brushes.
1 brush completly on the map. this is the entrance door.
1 brush completly off the map.  this is the crusher that moves into the map when triggered.
