Summary0000197: Region walls don't enclose everything
DescriptionAlthough this might not be the only case, the effect is readily seen with lights (come to think of it, it might happen for speakers too). When setting a region, the editor includes within that region all lights whose radius even touches it. Bad. If you've got a fairly far reaching ambient, for instance, it will always be included in your region, even if your regioned area is nowhere near it. As a result, when you save and compile the region, it leaks.

Possible suggested fixes include:
1. Considering ONLY light (etc) origin for inclusing within a region - probably the most reasonable
2. some kind of smart logic to build the enclosing wall around everything
3. use the current viewport size to define the bounding wall. The user can then simply zoom their view out a bit to enclose the light ent. If they miss it, it's their fault, not that of the logic.
TagsNo tags attached.

The case of lights is handled by enclosing the entire light. Perhaps not necessary, but it seems to work okay. Will report any problem I stumble upon, though I expect that this is covered. :)
