[WIP] [WIP] WIP: cg5_01 "Gel+Bridge=Win"

My first map for any Source game. 3 chambers centered on combining two specific puzzle elements (I wonder which two those might be?).

Map is pretty WIP; there is almost no detail, although the puzzles are fully functional. I think the last puzzle might be too hard.

There are also 4 "pseudo-achievements" which can be found by completing rooms without using certain puzzle elements.

On the last chamber it's possible to get to the door only using the Excursion Funnel.

For some reason this map always crashes the game for me when I try to release the gel from the funnel in the 2nd room. I had crashes related to huge amounts of gel released suddenly before, but they were rare and on a 2nd try it always worked. In this map however I always get the crash with no exception, it even corrupted my savegame when I saved while the gel was in the funnel.

This of course may be a problem on my side (even though my specs aren't that bad, Core2Duo e8400 and ATI 4890 GPU), but it seems like the amount of gel the pipe releases is far above the normal value used in maps. Maybe you could decrease the amount of gel a bit.

How? You're not supposed to use the blue gel, you may have the intended solution.
