'''Vacuum tubes''' are an aesthetic element of Portal 2. They are used throughout Aperture to distribute objects, like [[cubes (Portal 2)|cubes]], [[turret (Portal 2)|turrets]], and [[gel (Portal 2)|gel]]. They can be used to add visual interest to levels, and should be used around [[dropper|droppers]].
 
== Cubes and Turrets ==
The cubes and turrets that fly through the tubes are an animation. Look in the model folder "props_vac_anim".
 
== Gels ==
To make gel flow through tubes create an [[info_particle_system]]. Then set the particle to one of the following gels:
#'''blob_curve_orange''' - Propulsion Gel
#'''blob_curve_blue''' - Repulsion Gel
#'''blob_curve''' - Conversion Gel
Then create an [[info_target]] entity, name it, check the "'''Always transmit to client (ignore PVS)'''"
flag and set the [[info_target]] as '''control point 1''' of the [[info_particle_system]] you created before.
The Gel will now go straight from the [[info_particle_system]] to the [[info_target]].
 
The distance between those two entities will determine how thick the gel flow is.
