Peoples going to use occluders are in luck! :P
This is why this error occur:
If you got a room, and splits it in half by adding a wall on the middle. Then have two props in each room. Then you cant have a single occluder brush going from one room to another (going through the wall on the middle) to occlud both props. This will generate the straddles multiple areas error.
If you only have props in one of the rooms, and still have the occluder going through the wall in the middle, it will not generate this error.
Or as Jeff Lane said
here:
Quote:
This error usually occurs when an func_occluder is touching an func_areaportal, or is within a solid brush that touches two different areas on different faces of the brush.
An area is defined by an areaportal splitting up the two spaces.
It's not a fatal error, but the occluder will not function correctly.
