how do you delete entities?

[KLJF22x]

@TheOwenFilms Switch to the selection tool, click the entity (In 3D view), hit delete

[LegoMyFoot]

what does it mean when an entity is "leaked" because i keep getting that error

[KLJF22x]

@LegoMyFoot All entities must be inside a closed container. When there is a "Leak" it means either there is a hole in your container or an entity out side the container. Make sure there are no entities in the black area (outside the map). If not, check for any cracks at all the connections of your map, and fix them. For more information on leaks check here //developer.valvesoftware com/wiki/Leak

[KLJF22x]

@TheJCX10 I think the only way to use it on a Mac would be to use Bootcamp (install Windows), but I'm not 100% sure, sorry.

Hey, how do you put robots like Wheatly and turrets in your level also how do you put doors and moving platforms,GlaDoS cameras and companion cube emmiters also control ports for Wheatly to use. Sorry if it's to much to ask but pm me if you know how.
