80% finished my sp map and A Very Strange Bug has popped up.
The bend tool for faces is now malfunctioning
while my map is loaded up in the editor.
For when i first started my map, bending pipes were a breeze
now as I completed more of my map, the remaining pipes won't
bend properly and end up all a mess when you try to bend them.
Theory: it seems the more closer you get towards Red's Limits
then the functions in the editor one by one start to
malfunction...The bend tool being one of them to play up.
Reminder: Never test the paticle emitter in the editor.
Decay does not always work properly and you have to reboot the editor !!
I'm not even halfway to red's limits yet !!!
Red limits breached?, Yep, (20,000 fces and its still going !)
Put the brushes you want to bend in a GROUP. Save the group to your harddrive.
Load up a new map (or run RED a second time), load up the Groups again and bend them in this empty map.
Save groups again and load them in your map.
The limits of RED aren't always the same.
There are things that take more, and things that take less performance. This can be faces of brushes, or entities with different polycounts. Parker has a lot more faces than a admin bot.. and a brush face with a 1024x1024 texture which is scaled very small takes more performance than a big scaled 128 texture.
Limits are very variously. For example, you cannot say the limit is 100 brushes. 100box brushes or 100cylinder brushes which each of them has 40sides... you see?
