Hey Grey!

I was fearing that you didn't set the info_placement_helpers correctly after testing the new version and I took the liberty of decompiling your map. I was right. Please check:

You should set these 2 values to YES in order to make the info_placement_helpers work

I'm testing the new version now anyway!

Nice small map!
Feel kinda dizzy now because of all that

bouncing up and down
:D
My mouse really had a lot of work to do there^^
Most of the time I knew that to do next but it took me about 20 tries to

catch the cube and place it on the button while still flinging. But I like physical challenges :)

Clear 5 from me! Such a complex puzzle in such a small map... Impressive

@josepezdj Thank you, I never cared about this two points. But for me it works as it is. See a picture below: where the crosshair is and where a portal appears. Should it work another way?

@marKiu Glad you like it. And I guess you solved it the intended way. Thank you.

I don't quite understand this. Do you want me to record my own walkthrough?

Oh, lol, not calling you a bastard. Just saying it was super difficult to try and record a playthrough in one take >.< Eventually I set up 10 keybinds to record 10 demos and joined the parts together :)

Dude I can assure you that for me the helpers don't work at all. Indeed if I want them to work properly I always set those 2 values to Yes... give it a try and check the difference, because I think you'll notice :D

Finally managed it! Took literally over half an hour of constant quickloading to get the cube on the button without it falling, then another hour or so to work out what the hell to do next... Although after getting the redirection cube I kind of breezed through the rest. I'm going to hold off on rating to see if either a) there's a much better way to do the first part that doesn't require 5 thousand quickloads or b) greykarel manages to make it a little easier to execute the way I did it. I really want to give it a 5, as I thought the general idea was fantastic, but as it stands it was way too frustrating to warrant it.

Jose and everyone else who has trouble with that helpers, I'm sorry they don't work for you propperly.
But I assure that in version 1.1 I place the cube on the bridge pressing the button almost every time I manage to place a portal on the wall while the cube is over appearing bridge (so it takes 2-3 tryes).
And unfortunately I can't get to my PC and hummer to try to fix it until tomorrow.

Hehe, about that: Grey, as I decompiled your map I was able to see that amazing mapping skills you have!

Spoiler
You introduced a system based in a portal_detector on the wall panel to A) open the portal it its right position and B) subsitute a cube for another one that is specifically spawned on the button pressing it
.

Incredible workaround! :thumbup:
