I just started making maps, and when i try to compile it, i keep getting the error message


Warning: === LEAK in hull 0 ===
Entity info_player_deathmatch @ ( -64, 0,-192)
Error:
A LEAK is a hole in the map, where the inside of it is exposed to the
(unwanted) outside region. The entity listed in the error is just a helpful
indication of where the beginning of the leak pointfile starts, so the
beginning of the line can be quickly found and traced to until reaching the
outside. Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it
probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need
their origins outside the map. To deal with these, just enclose the origin
brush with a solid world brush

Im guessing its the leak thats not allowing me to play, but there are no holes in the map, and my spawn points and light are inside the map, anyone got any idea what the problum is?

Q: How do I plug a leak?

First of all, make sure you did not create any entities outside your map. An entity outside your map is just like a leak, if not worse.

If you can not find any entities outside your map:
Load the pointfile generated by the compile tools by selecting the "load pointfile" option in the Hammer menus. Then follow the red line in the viewport to the hole. DON'T delete entities quoted as causing the leak, as they are just mentioned as a reference point. DO use the grid to help avoid leaks in the first instance.

Make sure there are no gaps between brushes, the inside of the map needs to be completely enclosed from the black void outside.

(If you're using Hammer 3.5 you should be able to see the red pointline in the camera-view which makes it easier to find leaks.)
QUACK! QUACK!

The hole is likely to be very small (like with Asians).

Do the same thing but put a .bat at the end. Leaving out a file extension will cause Windows to put the generic file extension.
