password: chief2Things I know:
- Droppers clip
- You can portal on the back of the angle wall
- No sound when the angle wall moves
Things I'm thinking about doing:
Things I'm attempting to figure out:
- How info_overlay_accessory works, if anyone has any insight, please say something.
- Only enabling (and leaving on) the checkmarks when a box is in the dropper. I've got a trigger_multiple over the droppers attached to a logic_relay, which then attaches to the respective texturetoggle. I'm just not sure how its all supposed to tie together.
Also, if anyones got any suggestions, I'll be happy to hear them.
EDIT: Oh, I forgot, the level is over when you find the cake. I might continue going, I'm not sure.

Quote from sKILLzkILLZ on October 18, 2007, 2:41 pmThis is how all custom maps should be!!
Everything is well- made except the glass-roof, which is very hard to see, its almost invisible!
But hey! Keep on the good work!!

But hey! Keep on the good work!!I'm not sure why the glass is like that. I can clearly tell where it is on my computer, but on others its nearly invisible. I'll have to find some way to tint it.

Quote from Ralph on October 18, 2007, 2:57 pmGreat puzzle - Took a while to figure out how it worked. Might be better if the player could see the box from the start, so they have something to aim for.
I also had problems seeing exactly which walls/floors were glass at times.
The piston will fix itself with a cubemap, see my topic on those for info. If its not already make the frosted glass a func_brush, that cleared up a similar effect for me.
info_overlay_accessor: I also tried to get these working with no luck, may need the updated compile tools.
As for the tick/cross signs, make the sign a func_brush, target it with a env texturetoggle, then fire the incrementTextureIndex input on the env_texturetoggle to toggle between the textures. Fire this with a trigger once in the hopper thats set to only go off on physics objects (the box).

They then see the button, and continue on.

Yeah, I know about the piston, thats why its listed under no cubemaps. The glass is not a func_brush, but I'll try it and see what happens.

Quote from Spacemonkey on October 18, 2007, 4:32 pmNice level, well designed. However I don't like the part where you have to jump into the room with the sentry gun, took me like 20 tries to get in their. Maybe you could make the opening a bit larger to be more forgiving. I found it quite frustrating.
Game Visuals: 5
Nice lightingPuzzle Difficulty: 3
Even though I knew I had to get into the sentry room, it took me so many tries I found it quite annoying.
Getting the box down the tube was fun though.General Gameplay Feel: 5
Also, the door to the box opens on touch (but the lift still doesn't go down, so still need to press the button)

If he would make it larger then people would complain about it being so big and easy to get into.
