In the room with the redirection cube, [spoiler]what was the portalable wall above the door for?[/spoiler]

Features one lockpicking stunt, using buttons which rotate parts of the lock up to the correct combination. While there are a couple quick escapades in portal territory thrown in for good measure, it's all about safecracking - which might prove unappealing and heavy for many. Lighter areas and clearer signage might help with that.

You can get stuck if you funnel to the button platform without the dispenser being on.

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of this map. It's mostly because the puzzle essentially doesn't make much use of portals. It was a neat concept, but ultimately this is more akin to something found in a different game like Half-Life or Resident Evil. As xdiesp reviewed, more helpful signs would indeed be a big boon for anyone trying to figure out which room they need to enter first and thus orientate the laser tower to it.

That's what I thought. What I did was [spoiler]place the funnel on the back wall, use it to crouch onto the ledge through the emancipation grid, and jump the cube over the grid.[/spoiler]

This map was different, to say the least; but then, aren't all good maps different in some way? A thoroughly enjoyable and challenging map. It's only fault is a lack of autosaves - often forgetting to save, I found myself repeating maneuveres over and over again. Well done

Triggers in this map are really poorly made.
If you go back after the entry door opens, it will close and you will get stuck.
The exit door repeatedly makes closing sounds even if it is already closed.
If you only partially enter the exit elevator, it will disconnect you while you are still playing.

Also consider using func_detail and area portals.

Can you please explain?

On the right, there's a room where you use a funnel to reach an isolated platform with a floor button on it. If the cube dispenser in the room is active (being hit by the lasers outside, I guess), then you can use the cube to disable the fizzler and leave. If it is not (happened to me, probably I didn't hit all the laser targets outside) then you can't place the cube on the button and you will be stuck there.

Yes I can see that. I will get on it right away!
