Summary: CSG Make Hollow should mitre brush edges
Product: GtkRadiant
Version: 1.4
Platform: All
OS/Version: Windows 2000/XP
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: tools

The make hollow function works great for simple brushes, but complex brush
shapes will create a set of brushes that intersect the volume of the the
brushes that represent the hollow of the origional brush. From what I have
read about map design, beveling the touching edges of walls is the better way
to create a room, but the make hollow currently doesn't do that. Adding this
functionality would simplify adding textures (since now it creates all sorts of
competing faces)
Example: create a sphere from a brush, and then make the sphere hollow, then
examine the new brushes created and how they intersect the brushes contiguous
to them.
