Rocket/bullet turrets are very easy to add to your Portal map.
Bullet (floor) turrets
- Select the entity tool (Shift + E) and in the dropdown menu select
npc_portal_turret_floor. - Then place it where you would like it on the map and rotate it so it's facing the correct direction.
- Right-click on it and go to Properties.
- Set Damage pushes player to Yes if you want the player pushed back by the turret.
- Under Flags, check Autostart and Fast retire. This will cause your turret to automatically start and retire fast (like the ones in Portal).
Additionally, you can create a box around your turret to prevent it from being knocked down.
Rocket turrets
- Select the entity tool (Shift + E) and in the dropdown menu select
npc_rocket_turret. - Then place it where you would like it on the map and rotate it so it's facing the correct direction.
