that is pretty awesome mate, i played you already in the day using it and it makes for some damn interesting shots.
-
Made my day! You're my new favourite wormer.
-
The first thing I really like about PX, great job! WA always needed a portal gun, in fact every game does. 8)
-
-
awesome work! i love it
-
You clearly stole my idea PyroMan!! Well ideas are for people who get things done. Very good job! The thing I don't like about many px weapons is that they don't look neat and good, but you pulled this one off, impressive :)
-
Ohh awesome you finally finished it
-
Gaaah, i loved Portal 2D flash game, never thought about it being possible in WA. Looks damn good, how do you aim portal gun while moving btw?
-
Next up.....gravity gun? :P
-
You clearly stole my idea PyroMan!!
heh, pretty much many people's idea ;D i personally would make one if i wasn't that lazy, but it's good to see people doing it for fun and with a lot of free time. Great job! also the graphics are very nice (if I made one myself there wouldn't be such beautiful graphics)
-
this is sick, vgj man!
-
Thanks for such for a comments guys! It`s a pleasure for me to make things like this, even if they kill all free time. I think they worth it!
My fav games are Half Life2, Portal and ofc WA. Now they become closer to each other :P
Next up.....gravity gun? :P
yeah dude, i`ll probably start to script a Gravity gun next :D I think it will be much simplier than Portal Gun. I hope :P

I`ve hosted it with like.. 8-10 people overall. and i have to say that its hard to handle Portal Gun with first attempts. It`s like.. try to play Roper when you first time playing on rope.
..Matter of practice. While testing this stuff over and over and over again, i`ve learned a lot of cool things and tricks. And i think this Portals is a huge potential for Worms schemes and cool and fun (which the most important) usage.
We`ve been testing that on map i made (some fragments included on video) but looks like i`ll change it.
I`ll make start with very simple and easy stuff and try to explain very detailed how this things works, step by step. Just like Valve did once with me when i 1st time tryed to play Portal.
So i`ll make some short delay before officially releasing this gun.
Anyway, i`m glad you guys enjoyed this video. I`ve learned even more tricky stuff :D Becouse skills with Portals rising much faster than with a rope.

how do you aim portal gun while moving btw?
well as soon as its a 2D game with keyboard control - controls is also should be a keys :) I`ve tryed to make worm aim - but when you fly on high speed - those aiming is extremely slow compare to speed :D So best choice was to make a fixed angles in 8 directions. You can guess tho: Up, Down, Left, Right, U-R, U-L, D-R, D-L. Holding these keys + spacebar make ability to shoot in any of those directions immidietly.
To switch between portal type (orange or blue) - used keys same as Max/Min bounce setting: "-", "+", Num-, Num+. But for me - switching with those keys takes too long :D
I`ve made ability to shoot opposite type of portal, with any current type active. For those thing Ctrl and Alt working.
I know most people remapping keys, partically Spacebar that goes on place of Ctrl or Alt (just like i do :D). No big deal - just remap those keys to smth you comfortable with :P
-
and ofc.. forgot to add about controls. if neither of those keys and key combination pressed - Gun will use last aim, prepared from ground.
-
On tus should be PX section forum with all that stuff ... maps, schemes etc
