red line

The red line will show you where the leak in your "skybox" is. If you follow the line, one end should end up somewhere outside the skybox in the void. The "void" is the empty space outside your map (world).

a sloppy way to easily fix this is to put a skybox on your map, even if it's indoors. I usually put one in for testing and texture it allgrey so leaks are apparent and i can test and fix them as i need.
