Can't believe I didn't think of that! I thought it was impossible to get myself and the bomb in lol

yep you got the correct solution, you can use
[spoiler]the upwards part of the funnel to get both you and the bomb/cube/turret in the maze and on the bridge.[/spoiler]
Also did you notice that you [spoiler]can actually scan turrets, boxes and even the player itself
(including some very witty comments, where the player gets a "TSA bodyscanner" reference)[/spoiler]

Me too, that part took me more time than the entire map itself.

First thing I tried was to bring myself to the cube, which is a no escape scenario - instead the map unstucks you if you enter the scanner.

Just a thought: I didn't spot all monitors before a 2nd playthrough, it would be cool if Rick turned the monitor (or came out of a wall) like in that scene in HL2: http://youtu.be/WEL49vFqB58?t=8m4s

that is actually quite a good idea, i've been toying with ways to get people to notice the monitor in the lab in time. but this seems like a fun method.

Also i was thinking of adding some more of those "wall popout" monitors like the one you have at the bomb button.

An excellent map, extremely creative and while lacking some artistic flair was very humourous and fun to play, despite
[spoiler]the frustration dropping the bomb caused. Also you should have tried to teach the player that bombs can go through light bridges through some method since it took me a while to figure that out.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I think the turret destruction could have been much more interesting and less of a chore, maybe making some of them explode or using ambient_generics to make them speak as they got hit.[/spoiler]

The Rick dialogue was spot on. Definitely. Having him berating me for taking too long was quite amusing and the bomb concept could work in several maps.. "I wouldn't have let it get this far".

I'm not aware that they can move "through" lightbridges, maybe it was a glitch? (just tried it out to be sure)

Also i did have plans to add voices to the turrets, and theres actually already a "killstreak" mechanism in place to fire the voices. Though in all the rush i forgot to actually add voices to them.
[spoiler]Currently used for the "Allright your funeral" for when you jump with more than 5 turrets still active[/spoiler]
(especially one saying "you have excellent aim" once you performed a perfect streak)

very nice map! a few issues I had:
[spoiler]I could clip through the faith plate.

I jumped from the second hard light bridge into the second part of the maze, grabbing the cube and getting stuck.[/spoiler]

Other than that, great map!

Greetings,
