Summary

0002112: Skybox\empty text? errors in a WDI map

Description

Randomly, the attached map will have its skybox fail to work properly when the map loads. There's also a weird issue with a load of what appear to be empty textboxes being spammed in console. The pictures should be a better description of what's happening here, basically it appears that skyboxes are ending up being substituted with random areas of the map.

Steps To Reproduce

Load up these files in order:

'http://www.best-ever.org/download?file=whodunit_fixed2.pk3 [^]'
'http://www.best-ever.org/download?file=wdi_castaway.pk3 [^]'
'http://www.best-ever.org/download?file=wdi-cgi-alpha4.pk3 [^]' (contains the map in question)

Start a server using the appropriate settings (http://www.best-ever.org/viewconfig?name=marc_wdi.cfg)

Switch between the map and other maps until you get the skybox error messages. It's VERY unpredictable. The empty textbox seem to happen after hitting a switch in the absolute center of the map, but this I can't be sure of, only included because maybe the cause is obvious to someone else.

(0011754) ibm5155 (reporter) 2015-02-25 10:36	Somehow, I think the maps are made in udmf? idk, but big/detailed udmf maps tend to bug sometimes when you sometimes do nothing

(0011765) WaTaKiD (updater) 2015-02-26 22:08	the "cant find skyviewpoint" messages also appear in 2.0 (tested with 2.0-r-150224-1833)

(0011766) Edward-san (developer) 2015-02-26 22:11	The funny thing is that I tested with WaTaKiD in an online 2.0 server, but I could not reproduce the message, while he did. Anyways, the best thing to do is to reduce the map as minimum as possible.
