That's completely fine, the map has definitely a few sections that are quite slow (with the intro possibly being downright boring), and there's barely any action in it whatsoever. It's more of a puzzle/exploration map, which also served as a sort of "playground" of some custom mechanics, so it's certainly jank at times or not always captivating by design.

If you're still interested, I can provide you with a command that will let you skip past the digging section.

Wow, this is absolutely terrible. Do not download it. I started playing and it was taking forever to dig and dig and dig. I gave up and watched Vincent's YT video - it took him 10 minutes of digging before any action started! I don't know what the level designer was thinking, but this is absurd.

That puzzle with the 4 things to turn had me for a bit.
It looks like I solved it easy in this video but I had stopped and resumed later.
After looking at the wall on the other side I then realized the proper orientation .

That's absolutely fine, I agree that this one map might appeal to a more narrow group of people, so there's nothing wrong with not liking it. There's a lot of exploration, puzzles and world-buidling and only a little combat in the end. So I'm sorry if this sort of map wasn't interesting for you, and I hope you'll find one that you'll like better.
Have a nice day.

My dear cementstairs-guy, I played your map until the first headcrab-planet... I don´t get it. What shall this be? Have fun with it, but live with my bitching, this is the worst modmap I did try to play.
Issues:
I can´t set the helmet on my head... i have to carry it the whole time.
To break the mine-walls, I have to knock 4 or 6 times, then wall went down. Takes a few minutes. Absolutely boring. Therefore, you can slap yourself, because you steal me worthy lifetime. Skummeh did it like a marathon-runner.
And then the control panel to travel (?) what is it? As a developer, you have to lead the players through the game. I don´understand the station, and just don´t know what to do.
I try to stay polite, but please ever mention your name to all maps you will develope from now on... as a warning for me, not to download it. Better go and play football or eat another pizza....

If anyone is interested in the map, but doesn't want to go through the digging section normally, you can use the command "ent_fire DigWall break" , which will break all the walls for you - but keep in mind you'll have to turn the wheel manually(Or use another command "ent_fire wheel* setcompletitionvalue 2")

Hey, I'm sorry you didn't have a good time. If you don't mind, I'll ask you a question - How far did you get?

there are idiotic projects and there are boring idiotic projects. This is a fucking boring project, which I don't get. Why? There are so many cool mods, this one is not worth mentioning it.

Hey, thanks a lot for trying the mod!
It's one of my older ones, so it might use a bit more of polish, but I still look at it fondly.
Feel free to try any of my newer ones, you might like some of them as well.

That was certainly glitchy but huge props for all the custom scripting work. Definitely a very unqiue map
