Summary0006243: Light volumes that should be culled bleeding into other vizleafs
DescriptionIn the map Welli and I are working on, there is a large single light in the fireplace on the ground floor.

With the player stood in the basement and after inputting "r_showLightCount 1" we can see way more lights hitting surfaces than there are light in that vizleaf.

So I stood still and look at each of the colours represeting amount of lights hitting surfaces -

red = 0
green = 1
blue = 2
cyan = 3
pink = 4
white = 5+

And the white stood out as I could see it moving like a candle or fireplace. So I then nocliped to the room above and doused that fireplace.

And then when that light off, I got a FPS improvement
Additional Information@nbohr1more comented -

"I wonder if some of this can be done at the dmap level since optimizing the realtime engine is a pretty challenging."

Light cannot be always culled by flowing through visportals.
Read linked 0005172 for explanation why.
