I didn't notice any problems, but I'm not sure I finished it as intended. Were you supposed to [spoiler]use the camera to turn off the lightbridge[/spoiler] in the last room? That was the only way I could see how to get past it to the exit. In general, I thought the puzzles were a little easy for my taste, but they did get harder as you progressed. I had no problems with lag. And I didn't come across any obvious map-breaking shortcuts.

You were right about not finishing it the intended way. You should [spoiler]use the non-reflective cube to block the laser, then move it by portals to the button[/spoiler]. I'll just fix it so you can't go around the solution.

I thought about trying your ending, but the liklihood of getting the cube into that cube button was so low that I figured that there must be another way. I would suggest making the button a standard floor button. The chance of getting a cube to fling perfectly into a cube button is pretty low and is way out of line with the difficulty of the rest of your map. I'll play your map again tomorrow to check this, but you might want to think of an alternative ending.

Actually, I've made a mechanism so that a cube will (almost) always hit the button when it's supposed to. I only used a cube button to avoid confusion with standing on the button, but if this causes even more cofusion I could change the button to a regular one.

I'm not sure the mechanism is working correctly: I tried this about 20 times and it went in and stayed there twice (oddly, it worked on the very first try and I thought I was going to have to eat my words). I saw that you had a place marked out for the portal, but there didn't seem to be any placement helper on that panel. The choice is yours, of course, but you might want to test this element a bit more.

This is the one of the elements I have had the most problems with. I thought I fixed it but it doesn't seem like it works after all. I'm going to change that part a lot now, it definetly needs to work better.

The map is now updated so the issues you have told me about are fixed. I think it needs some more playtestning before I can release it though.

That worked well. I noticed that you had a fling helper on one of the panels in the next to last room. I suppose it's needed to prevent unnecessary deaths, but it's a little unnerving if you go through it to retrieve the cube later. I also noticed that the lightboard at the beginning said this was the first of 12 levels. Is that right?

Quote from soptipp1 on October 23, 2012, 1:48 pm

I think I know which panel you mean. I might fix that in a later update, or when I release the map. About the numbers...you might see that the second lightboard says 9/23. You can see it as GlaDOS moving you from one test track to another with different numbers. It's got nothing to do with the sequence of chambers. I'm a pretty slow mapper, so a 12 chamber map pack might take years for me to complete.
