How do you make rising platforms, like the ones that rise up from the goo liquid? Is it anything to do with prop_telescopic_arm? I can't find a tutorial on it anywhere...
thanks in advance.

Make a func_door, set the speed to somewhere inbetween 25 and 75 and parent a platform to it (either a prop_dynamic or make a brush and make it a func_brush)

i think the telescopic arm has something to do with the poles you see on the moving parts of walls

A Func_MoveLinear would work better than a func_door.

Plus I've read that func_movelinear is broken. As in, you can't set things as its parent.
Or is what I read wrong?

I set a lift platform as a parented object to it... Works just fine.

No you can in fact, the moving platforms are a combination of both, a func_door and a Func_movelinear, so it should be fine, as i would prefer making both.
