Basically you have two options.

You can either load the pointfile and follow the red line to find out why the dod_capture_area is leaking or you can go to view/go to cordinates and type in 158.00 -611.00 -275.00 which will take you to the offending dod_capture_area.

That way you should be able to fix the leak.

Trigger/entities can't be outside your map, it will cause leaks no matter if the map is closed or not.

ok, now im confused. The only dod_capture_area is in the centre of my map, well away from any sky. its 32 units off the floor, so it cant be outside the map. i loaded the pointfile, and the red line starts outside my skybox, travels around 128 units towards my skybox and stops.

Tried making a plain map, plain cube type map, just a floor, 4 sky walls, and a sky roof. still leaking with the same entity.... :(

If you want I can take a look at it for you, if you would like me to pm me and I can give you an email address to send it to me.

Can't promise anything but maybe I can fix it for you

cheers for the reply, but its kinda fixed itself now. hid the entity, compiled, it was ok, unhid the entity, compiled, and its still ok. odd that :)
