it's kinda interesting, that if you look back at all my old projects, you can see that i'm getting better at tearing code from ganggarrison

Yeah definitely , also why don't you show the portal gun on the character?

Just make the portalgun object and put this in the draw event:

Code:

Mouse=point_direction(x,y,mouse_x,mouse_y);
image_angle=Mouse
draw_sprite_ext(WeaponS,0,Character.x,Character.y,1,1,Mouse,0,1)

I got a video processing on the test chambers

Gateway Test Chambers 1-5

you tried too hard on room 05.
you could've just picked it up and warped.

Well then good job, 

This reminds me of two months ago when we had about a billion different versions floating around.

i upped chell's max vspeed to 25, so that room 12 is possible

[aptanananananator]

That's actually really nice, more then Gateway has done
Custom map support? PLEASE.

Hey so blue dragon I was wondering how you got the momentum and stuff working correctly,

I figured out a way to make it so that it would detect if the portal were free from the left, right, up, and down, however, I could not figure out how to make it so that the portals go into the wall so that only one side is exposed.

Unless you did four different kinds of wallmasks

[Renya!]

Great so far! I think you should add more funny anecdotes for GLaDoS though lol

Oh, and there's a glitch in Room 01. If you destroy the box via the particle feild, the cube dispenser doesn't drop any more boxes.

i used some code i dug out of the Original Gateway

Code:

move_contact_solid(direction, speed);
a=0;
b=0;
if !place_free(x+6,y) a+=1;
if !place_free(x-6,y) a-=1;
if !place_free(x,y+6) b+=1;
if !place_free(x,y-6) b-=1;    

instance_destroy()    
    {
        direct = point_direction(x,y,x+a,y+b);
        if(instance_exists(BPortal)){
        with(BPortal){
            instance_destroy()
            }
        }
        portal=instance_create(x-(32*a),y-(32*b),BPortal);
        portal.direction=direct
        portal.image_angle=portal.direction;
        
    }

this sets the direction of the portal, and i use

Code:

if(instance_exists(OPortal) && portalsafe = 1){
    x = OPortal.x
    y= OPortal.y
    direction = OPortal.direction+180
    alarm[0] = portaltimer
    portalsafe = 0
    sound_play(PortalWarp)
    }

for chell.
