What I had done to get in position is put the cube in the button and gain momentum, then put one portal next to the cube and one next to the funnel (or its projection on the ground) while still flinging off them, then grab the cube while falling, then (or after how much time you want to take still flinging to study it, it's not time sensitive) let go of the cube at the apex of a fling next to the funnel, so you enter the funnel while the cube keeps flinging. Wait for the cube to fling off a couple more times before placing its exit portal under the funnel (wait too long and it looses too much speed); you have more than enough advantage on the cube as to be able to get into the bridge room, place the portals, and reach the buffer zone before the button is pressed.

Wait, the intended solution is to "fling the cube" ? As in, just move the cursor up very fast while jumping under the funnel and release it at just the right moment? I tried to do this about a hundred times after reading that it was the intended solution, but never managed to. Don't know if I need Higher sensitivity or what.

you need to place light bridge slighlty deeper in the pit - i just took cube straight to the funnel jumped on top of it when button was pressed and reached light bridge and that was it

PS just looked at the rest of LB's playthrough and I didn't do what he did at 18:33 i.e. he drops into pit under laser field and shoots portal into that room - I walked across the light bridge into that room, made new bridge across to exit room, walked between laser field and fizzler and waited for cube to get to button. Sorry about all this, I'm just a bit wound up about resorting to cheating - I'll try to be a bit more concise next time!

Really good puzzle, but I couldn’t do it :steamsad:. After a few wrong moves, I worked out what I need to do, but after about 30mins trying to pull it off, I gave up and noclipped :steamsad: that part to set it up. I completed the second part in a reasonable time without too much trouble. After completing it (by cheating:steamsad:), I looked at LB’s solution below and it looks like what I was trying to do was correct(?), but my portal skills aren’t up to it :steamfacepalm:.

What I did felt unconventional, did I do it right? https://youtu.be/7Bg_M22C0zM

That was pretty clever. Took me a while to figure out, but the "aha!" moment was great. Thanks for making it!

im not sure i got the intended solution,i didnt block the funnel with the bridge.

Very clever man, I took a few tries before I realized the bridge maneuver, and the exit part is clever and fun :steamhappy:.

@temporarymanwastaken Yes that is intended. The white panels at the exit area serve no purpose as I updated the map to make it more easier and forgot to take it out. :GDHard:

@p0rtalmaster You were supposed to get the cube in the funnel by flinging then block the cube in the funnel using the light bridge. That way you have enough time to get across to the bridge source area and to the "switching zone". :)

@kimist108 Is that still possible? I thought the bridge was guarded with a laser field to prevent players from doing that.
