Description
Always a popular attraction. Now with 100% more science!

If you're scared of heights, let me know.

Note:
This briefly turns on cheats to get things to work.

This map was made using Hammer from the Portal 2 Authoring Tools. You can find the Authoring Tools under the tools tab of your game library if you own Portal 2. It is still labeled a beta, but don't let that discourage you.

Why do you have that quarterpipe at the end of the gel runway? It looked cool but you don't need it

I almost shat myself after I saw moving portals lol

What p0rtalmaster said. Plus this map is really borderline broken. I thought clever action vs. reaction physics were going to be used with the ferris wheel and gel.

I made it bigger during development and a little more after initial release.

How did you triple the landing platform's size exactly?

Valve used scripts to handle the moving portals. I chose console because I had no idea how to use scripts at the time and, during development, the mobile portals command worked. The Peer Review dlc broke a lot of things all around, sv_allow_mobile_portals was one of them.

I nearly tripled the landing platform's size. I tend not to go for good Portal design.

Oh, I almost forgot: asbestos is not part of the test. Cave Johnson said so himself! Neither are cheats (think about it: Valve has a map with working portals on moving surfaces without the need for cheats).

This test took me more tries than I would like to have had. What this test really is, is a timing puzzle, as well as one of precision. Not exactly what I would call elements of good Portal game design.

For the starting ramp, some better visual direction would be much appreciated, as well as a wider landing ramp so as to lessen the precision factor.

Also, how about some autosave points to spare your test subjects a little agony?

@Dassin, there was, you had to use the gel and run off the jump

Greate idea, could use a puzzle to get to the button.
