[Coop] Cyan Industries
Overall, I liked the map, even though the above posts are right about the balancing. The first room with the gel and buttons is clever and (once the fizzlers were added) doesn't force one particular solution.
Suggestions
- On the stairs (where the cube is a step), the far side of the bottom step is missing and the player can see out of the map.
- Consider using a prop_floor_cube_button on the button that opens the door to the latter half of the puzzle so that one player doesn't stand there while the other goes through it.
- In the area with the faith plate, don't put the only target under the deathtrap. Putting one under each might work, or you might want to consider using Ratmann's writing.
The brightness is still way to high in some areas.
As for the Ratmann den,
For the stairs im not sure wat you mean with a missing nodraw texture, i will look on this
For the floor button i will change this after the update, however this update will take a bit longer
In the area for the faith plate i alrdy painted on the wall ''never trust your environment'' so there is basicly alrdy a hint. (however this only can been seen for the player that is walking ''upstairs'' and not for the player that is in the pit.)
For the ratmen den, it hard to get in but once you figure it out, its relative easy, its not mend to be accesed easy.
please take time figuring to get at places, b4 giving up and ''blaming'' the creator
Also for the brightness i agree this needs to be lower aswel, after trying it out a several times.
Thanks for the feedback.

The map is very large sized, however the puzzle should be easy to follow

If you have a older version of Cyan industries please replace it with this one.

I've played the second map now (since I already played the first one). You evidently like the 'need 2 cubes, find a cube, use it to get a second cube' format, and I think it works even better on this map than it did on the first.
Wow, theses two maps were awesome.
We really liked them. Well thought
I really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Some bugs however:
On the second map I had a lot of elements not shown on my screen.
Laser doors were sometimes invisible to me, I had to ask my partner if he see them on my shared screen. The room with a cube and two round doors to open with a "laser button" was empty ! It was only when my partner was with me that all appeared. It seems that the clipping is to strong if both of the robot are not in the same room.
Thanks that you liked the maps and for the feedback.
However the strange bug you have sounds more that its on your computer somewere, due i tested it with several persons and did not encounter this, maby your portal game has a problem with the buildup of the level. maby you need your verify your game cache.
Sorry for the issue.
I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:

In this map you will go deeper into Cyan Industries, and find a new puzzle machine.
The map is large sized and a bit different then a average map, also you need to make sure how you place a portal (direction). overal relative hard map
Played part 1,2 and but dont want to do it again? just launch mp_coop_cyanindustries3
If you have a older version of Cyan industries please replace it with this one.

-Fixed being able to place a portal behind a button if looking in a specific angle
-Minor grafical update
-Added portal remover at the end
nice 3rd map - we have just finished it few minutes ago.
Really nice future design - looks amazing.
Map was fun to play, and soooooo big.
Puzzles were easy/medium... it was more about exploring the map, but it was fun, because of the design. 
Good job on all of them.
