An odd error when testing Created 15 years ago2009-04-02 18:35:06 UTC by DiscoStu

Been testing some of my maps, and when I use Impulse 101, sometimes the game just exits with this message:

ERROR: Item item_suit fell out of level at -43.968750,1.638937,-27.968748

WTF?

it seems you have a leak or some other impediment that is making the suit fall outside the level bounds when it gets spawned. Dunno why it's crashing the game, though.

Certainly not a leak. And it's not because of an out of place entity either. It's weird, because it only happens sometimes when I stock me up through the console.

Odd... :/

Impulse 101 does that occationally, most of the time for no good reason. Its definitely not a problem with the maps, cause it happens in any map, including the actual half-life maps. It seems to do it a lot when you are noclipping, ive noticed.

Try not to use the impulse 101 cheat when:

• you're standing on a brush entity.
• you're in midair.

Impulse 101 works correctly when you're standing on an solid brush.
There's no real fix for this other than the method above.

Like Darkie said, it's more often when noclipping. Funny, as most of the later times I was noclipping to float in the middle of a room and ensure I was within the usable map and not "outside" haha.

And thanks for the ideas Mighty Atom. I suppose it'll work - gotta try it on my next run.
