Template:Portal series point It is a prop representing one of the two portals.

Warning.pngWarning:Bad placement of a prop_portal will cause the location of the portal to revert to the map's origin.
Note.pngNote:Portals will revert to the map's origin regardless of placement if set to start active.
Note.pngNote:In order for a prop_portal to link up to the player's weapon_portalgun in Portal 2, the portal pair ID must be set to 1.

Placement Rules for Portal 2

  • 1-8 units from the surface the portal is to be placed on.
  • At least 57 units away from any adjacent surfaces on the top and bottom.
  • Todo: Find minimum distance that adjacent surfaces can be on sides (probably slightly less than 32).
