Ending a Portal map

Initially made by "Thousandth Beam"

Introduction

Using this tutorial you can end maps like on Portal's Bonus maps.

Entities

Make two entities. Make a "point_clientcommand" and call it "end_disconnect". Make a "env_fade" and call it "end_fade". (It is recommended to put them near the trigger just for convenience.)

Trigger

Create a brush that's the area that you want the map to end. Texture it with a "tools\toolstrigger" texture. Select it and press CTRL+T. make it a "func_triggeronce".

Trigger's outputs

Make the trigger's outputs the following:

	Output named	Target entities	Via this input	Parameter	Delay
	OnTrigger	end_fade	Fade		0.00
	OnTrigger	end_disconnect	Command	disconnect	2.00

Theory

When you touch the trigger the "env_fade" will make you start to fadeout. After 2 seconds, the fadeout will be complete and the "point_clientcommand" will make you return to the main menu.
