Portals on moving surfaces
you should do this on the map startup
sv_cheats 1
*allow mobile portals*
sv_cheats 0
...
Actually, it needs to be "sv_allow_mobile_portals 1" without the quotation marks. If you simply enter the command it won't do anything. Cheat codes in Portal 2 are variables that have to be set to something. In this case, it is a Boolean that needs to be set to 1 or 0. When it is set to 1, you CAN have portals move. The default is to have it set to 0, which means that you can NOT have moving portals.

I know, but when I posted it I didn't feel like looking up the actual command
Is there no way to hardcode a custom map so the cheat codes dont appear on screen?
Just enable cheats real quick and disable, unless it is coop, then that won't work. I had to turn on developer mode for a few seconds in my gravity gun map, nothing too noticeable happened in that time.

I already have that in place, but that yellow message always presents itself in the bottom left corner.
There's a command that I can never remember the name of, I think it's hud_saytime, which controls how long the yellow text appears for.
got it!! So for future referance to anyone

onmapspawn - @command - command - sv_cheats 1
onmapspawn - @command - command - hud_saytext_time 0
onmapspawn - @command - command - sv_allow_mobile_portals 1
onmapspawn - @command - command - sv_cheats 0
make sure to separate the 'cheat' outputs by a microsecond from the 'saytext' and 'mobileportal' lines so they can take effect
You can also write that in one output:
OnMapSpawn - @command - Commmand - sv_cheats 1; hud_saytext_time 0; sv_allow_mobile_portals 1; sv_cheats 0
This way you don't need to worry about delays.
i didnt know you could add that many lines in a single command 0_o
