Special features:
- Asking where things are without reading the discussion posts will get you a ticket into the Bottomless Pit
- Pressing E on the safe in Stan's office toggles the MYSTERY SHACK sign between the 'S' being fixed and broken
- Shooting the upper half of the 'S' while it is in its repaired state will cause it to fall off of the signboard. You can shoot the same spot again to restore it, and you can only turn it back to the normal 'broken' mode via Stan's safe when it's fully in its 'repaired' state.
- The elevator to the Underground Laboratory has now been swapped over to automatic control, due to many people failing to realize that it was manual control before.
- The main light in the private study is toggleable, and pressing E on the Bill glyph in the room puts up a facade curtain over the Bill tapestries.
- There's a hidden button in the basement lab that can activate placeholder func_monitors on the living room TV and the screens of Project Mentem. These are completely miscellaneous in purpose.
- The Portal has a sort of activation sequence effect that lasts two minutes, and leaves a constant spark effect on the portal afterwards. The portal can be entered, and it can be disabled via the big red shutdown button.
- There's a hidden area in the map. While it heralds nothing, if you can find your way in without noclipping, you get free Stan Bucks from me.*

*stan bucks may not be included

Known bugs/errors:
- The portal shutdown has a minor bug, in which if you mess around with it too much (spamming E on it or bumping into it like a dysfunctional bumper car) it may crash your game. Try to only use it when you're actually deactivating the portal.

Please refrain from killing the live museum displays. The headcrabs, zombies, Combine City and Shield Scanners, the Combine Turrets, and the Half-Life 2: Episode One Vortigaunts & G-Man display were expensive to obtain, and we don't need to be spending more to replace them after you decide to kill them for no apparent reason other than you thought they needed to die. Also, don't just go flinging your physgun at everything, that's just annoying.

After a previous major update to the map, the vending machine now starts out locked. You need to find a red dial hidden on the first floor of the shack to unlock it; as for a hint, as the lab/study are areas pertaining to Ford Pines, the location of the switch to unlock the vending machine must be another room pertaining to Ford Pines.

And if you don't know who Ford Pines is, go back and watch all of Season 2 again.

There's a chalkboard in the lab that tells you how to operate it. But as a note, the three levers under the glass window are used for activation, while the one in front of the portal itself is used to deactivate it.


The lift operates floor-by-floor, and the visually-seen buttons do actually correspond to which floor the lift goes to. The topmost button takes you to the topmost floor, the middle takes you to the middle floor, and the bottom takes you to the portal lab. Please, stop confusing yourselves on how to operate a lift; I can only do so much hand-holding before it becomes ridiculous.

Please refrain from posting any comments relating to the incident; this map has been returned on the premise that we are all willing to forgive and forget, and move on from that incident. If you have not read the changelog for this new iteration of the map, please do so.

If you don't like Gravity Falls, then why did you even click into this workshop post? I'm looking for constructive criticism on the map, not opinionated hate on the show. If you want to whine about it, go on Facebook or Twitter or something.
