I learned: NEVER EVER (de)intersect a sheet!

Really weird things can happen if you do it.

Why don't you just increase the size of the sheet?

When I use a sheet for say....a zone barrier I never de/intersect it....I always let it over hang the brush for which it is going through...that way its air tight and no freeky BSP sh**.......

I never deintersect a sheet brush, especially if I'm going to use it as a Zone Portal, because it can 'fracture' the sheet brush (introduce coplanar polygons) and cause weird stuff to happen.

8-4-7-2, that's how much the sheet de-intersected, not how much i wanted it to, a poly somehow duplicated a whole section of my level into a builder brush. Well i wanteed to deintersect the brush so i wouldn't get all the funky stuff because i didn't want any leaks in the level, since i would deintersect, the face would make a perfect seal without any excess giving a clean split. I've used other portal based editors and well it never made a diference if there were splits in the portal, hell in the game i've never seen a hom effect unless the rooms shell was open

lol i've learned not to intersect/deintersect sheets it messes things up, just let it hang over like i-spie said, it works for me
