Summary	0004116: LOD objects blocking player after map start
Description	I've just added "map_lod_bias" to a bunch of the tress in the forest map in nhat, and I noticed on first map load after a dmap the player was being blocked by invisible tress that should be fully hidden by LOD.
Steps To Reproduce	1. create a bunch of trees and set some of them to map_load_bias 1.5. 2. set the LOD slider to lowest. 3. do a fresh map. 4. then try to walk directly through/over where a tree was located and you will find you blocked. 5. move the LOD slider to highest, go into game 6. move the LOD slider back to lowest, go into game. 7. you'll find you can now walk over/through where the tress was located.
Additional Information	We need a category for LOD, had to select SEED as there was no other relevant category.
Tags	No tags attached.

SteveL 21.03.2015 09:51 reporter ~0007474	The problem: The min_lod_bias is picked up during idEntity::Spawn, and the entity is hidden right there and then during ParseLODSpawnargs(). But the clipmodel contents are re-enabled immediately afterwards during idStaticEntity::Spawn. Required fix: ParseLODSpawnargs should post a hide event rather than call Hide() directly.
