When your map compiles, BSP bounces around inside it trying to find ALL the open space to pre-compute where the player is allowed to be.

Along the way if it gets OUTSIDE your map (i.e. beerbox not sealed 100%) then it is a leak.

You can view the path that BSP took through your map right in Hammer after you get a leak. Just use Map->Load Pointfile.

It can be a long and twisty path but it has to go through your leak hole.

Ladders, triggers, CLIPs, and any special blocks of any kind DO NOT HELP to seal in the beer. Only normal, un-tied, non-entity brushes can do that.
