This kept happening from entity #70, so I'd copy, delete. then it said 69. Repeat.. Repeat.. Until 63.. And now.

Coplaner face means that your brush is has a straight edge that is made up of more than two vertices. Here's an example:

Go to that brush and fix the vertices by either moving the vertice, or deleting it.

That's the thing, it says it doesn't exist though.

Not only that, but I have not done any vertex manipulation, I've just made blocks with legal unit sizes.

Keep deleting then. :P

Make a backup of the map first, then keep deleting. If the entire map disappears, well...you may have other issues. ;)

Recently I had a map where a nasty "leaf portal saw into leaf" error that turned pretty much all the brushes on my map in to coplanar errors--even ones that obviously weren't.

I would fix the coplanars it referenced, and there would just be more new ones for the next compile. The only way I could fix it was to go to a previous version, and delete the brush that was giving the "leaf saw" error.

I hope this isn't what's happening to you! If it is and you find a good way to fix it without rebuilding the map--or going to an older version--, please share!

Sorry my net went down - I followed the coordinates of this "Entity 63" that the editor said didn't exist.. Well, it existed, coordinates don't lie.. Turns out I was trying to make a func_ladder out of a cylinder brush that I forgot to change back to block.. Stupid thing was so thin the planes lined up - Problem solved :P

Thanks for the input guys, maybe this post will help others in the future :)

Yeah, but it always feels good when you nail something too ;)
