I couldent find it at tommy14??? What kind of stuff will give me the saw leaf error so i avoid it in the future. Thanks!

I ran my map several times succesfully before this error. I added a big room with catwalks going accross it and this error occured. I don't know if this is a coincidence, but before this error occured I got several 'out of world' errors. I fixed them simply by deleting an old carving expirement.

-I am using Zoner's Half life tools
all settings at normal - vis,csg,bsp,rad

+Do I need to scrap the whole map?
+How can I find the thing to fix?
+How can I fix it

*This was the error
*First is the error section, second is the entire compile log
