(Redirected from Pointfile)
…
Linear Pointfile formerly known as Pointfile helps you find leaks in your map, a brush that doesn't close the void, or a func_areaportal that does not fully close a room. This file is created if your map contains leaks, a file with your map's name will be created in the VMF's location, using a .lin extension (e.g. my_map.lin). When a map is no longer leaking, the file will be deleted next time VBSP runs.
File format
Each row of numbers are points and location (coordinates) in
