JFSW closed to desktop and popped that up after I railgunned some ninja at Auto Maul.

It happens.
This evening I had this one in Duke, then crashed to the desktop :)

Hmm, found this somewhere:
"The Lone Sector Effector...

You have been working on a map for some time and you have had no problems with either editing the map or playing it in the game and all of a sudden it doesn't work in the game? Chances are you have accidentally placed a sector effector some where in the map which has no tags.

This is what a "Lone Sector Effector" looks like (see right). The game engine will not run a map if there is such an effector without tags on the loose"

Interesting...
I actually went into that map afterwards and could not find anything wrong with that particular Sector Effector but deleted it anyways.
It then found another one and so it went on and after deleting about 6 of them I gave up ::)

It would be interesting to see what happens after all the sector effectors are gone, though.

I think you should be doing the reverse. It's probably the sector tags that got messed up.
