Mystery Blip On My Minimap.

Green_Meat

<div class="IPBDescription">Anybody else getting this?</div> On the map I'm making, I get a blip on the minimap (res node / hive dot) in a location where nothing is. I've been through the RMF numerous times looking for a stray entity, but there isn't one. The only thing close to the point is the exact center of the map (shown as a red, green, and blue axis marker in worldcraft). Every so often, the area will have the hive pulsing sound also. I have confirmed that there is no entities at that location. What else could be the problem? Any ideas? Anything I should test? As always, any help will be greatly appreciated.

NS does that to me too. I think it's only there when cheats are turned on.

This blip is even included in one oficial map.
Must be the reason that the ns.fgd is buggy and an entity bug sometimes causes a damaged point entity at (0,0,0).

OK, kinda figured as much.

Thanks guys,

Open a lan game of ns_nothing and check for a white blip near the generator room. CLick on it while in the commander mode and you'll see smoke! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

There used to be a bug in the NSTR where particles would be emitted from the map origin as well as from their respective source. This might be a related issue to this, who knows?

Really?
Then that would explain the steam i posted about in my last post, since next to the generator room is the map origin.
