[PTI] Imp

Another PTI/Hammer mashup - this time a tiny wee map with a single puzzle. One room, one cube, one button, one funnel. Can't be too hard, right?

Thanks to zivi7 for once again pointing out how I keep forgetting about the portal-bumping glitch.

Quite hard to pull off without funnel, but it is possible :p

No idea how to solve it with the funnel though.

Mind letting me know how you're managing it without the funnel? I did my best to prevent that, though if it's difficult enough I can leave it in.

The solution requires a little bit of skill, but not too much (I can pull it off every time, and I wouldn't call myself a particularly advanced player); it's more of a logical problem.

Is this gonna be one of those palm to forehead moments? I seem to be having a lot of those since finding TWP! I've been working this room for about an hour so far and am feeling like an idiot so far.

I infiflinged myself through the roof, with the cube on the button.

Then I re-portaled my ceiling portal under the panels and while falling I pressed the button to get a new cube so the panels were open again and I won ;)

Haha, well, if you're doing that then

Spoiler
you might as well come up with an easier way to get the extra momentum and a portal on the other side without needing an infinifling...

Anyway, I can't really prevent that, but if you managed it then all the more respect to you!

EDIT: @rock_and_rage - I hope so. That is, I hope it's more 'palm-to-forehead' and less 'fist-to-screen'.... Like I say, there's a little skill involved, but certainly nowhere near what LP achieved (which I personally couldn't). There's a big clue under the spoiler stuff LP and I were just talking about, if you're really stuck.

Oh wait, you need the funnel? I thought you were trolling!

EDIT: OK got it, I used the funnel and walked away with the cube.

Spoiler
You should really remove the wall surfaces because you can see them too while flinging.

Lol, looks like I need to remove some ceiling panels.... thanks for that!

EDIT: Updated. Yeah, you're supposed to use the funnel, and you shouldn't really need to

Spoiler
shoot any portals up top.

EDIT 2: Wow, that's a crazy technique there in the updated vid - from a logical perspective I can't really understand where the extra momentum is coming from. Regardless, I think I'll take your advice and get rid of the wall surfaces too.

I was actually thinking of making the cube required to open the door, but that just struck me as a bit mean, really....

Me Too - Still working on it with little success. I did take a peek at LP's solution and since I'm not even close to being a Ninja, I'll keep at what I think is the solution.

It looks like a2912871's video is gone, so I don't know how he/she solved it. But I solved it by funneling up to the ceiling against glass panels, then

Spoiler
portal ceiling above cube, when through portal, fire ceiling portal under you, grab cube,and you're home
. Though you may have to strafe a bit. Nice little puzzle.
