i had this once or twice when making test maps - make sure to try to keep say a room that you teleport to close to the map itself, otherwise dont make a amazing huge and open box/corridor.. that gives room for error also.

I found a way to fix this bug. Beach wasn't making this error (but i deleted it.....). I just made too big caulk box around map. But why caulk? It's outside the map...

because it counts as a "structual" brush, im guessing you had a leak than made the caulk box? caulk box is a bad habbit, try caulking the face of your brushes that are outside the map.

On Paint this type of caulking is really hard and uneffective.

You could also try fixing your map, since putting a big caulk box around your map to plug any holes is something that cannot be forgiven.

Also make sure you use Hint brushes(correctly).

[mytwobits]You dont HAVE to use hint untill you get a highly detailed map/otherwise laggy map[/mytwobits]
