Hey Maurice, can you make the water (EDIT:that wipes out the gel) from portal 2

Actually it's not Gel. It's just water. But I think this would be kinda cool for puzzles.

speaking of water... shouldn't we die instantly in water levels? GLaDOS does say 'do not submerse the device into water' and all lol

It's old, but in this case I'll let it slide because it was used quite cleverly.

Well... I was hoping Maurice or Sašo would view this topic and add it into the game so ppl could use it in maps and stuff.

He always has my permission to add anything I mod in to the game to the main distribution.

Is this what you were looking for?

To the extent that the white paint does get washed away but it doesn't destroy the portal. This probably has to do with the gel narrowly hitting the edges. It could be fixed by making objects funnel into a portal or by checking for portals on the tile it's colliding against. How should it behave in this instance?
(Also: How about that no leftward geldispenser bug?)

As soon as I can fix any bugs and separate it from other existing mods.

I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't introduce any bugs/I was just interested in how it would work. Going with the mechanics of Portal 2, it shouldn't wash it off until the portal is removed, I guess. As long as it doesn't delete your portal, it will work fine. I hope Maurice adds it to the game!
