It's most likely a leak. Try to temporarily place a large hollow cube around the map and see if you still get this error. If you won't, then it's a leak.

As for the

thing, you need not worry about it. It doesn't seem to affect compiling.

In Hammer, load the pointfile once you have compiled. This will make a line from that func_useableladder to the gap where it's leaked. Follow the line and close the gap.

^ that is the leak. the bit that Andrei quoted appears in every log that i've ever seen for a source engine compile.

i don't understand what you mean when you say that you tried to compile it to glview. what's that all about?

ctrl + f + glview, to see how my leaves are looking, trying to optimize the map.

and yeah.. i'm going to try a pointfile and see how it works. I deleted those entities, and each time i get a new entity showing up saying i have a leak.

Don't delete the entities that appear in the log when a leak is found, they're hardly ever the cause. The only time an entity itself causes a leak is when it's placed in the void, e.g. outside of the playable area.
In any other case, you didn't seal off your playable area from the outside, and the entity closest to this leak (or something like that) is put into the compile log. So it's not the cause, more like an indicator to where your real leak is.

okay, i'm not too worried the only entities i deleted were ladders and ladder exit point ones. eh, now i just have to compile it and use the pointfile.. i hate leaks so much..
