The discription should be clarified. --Darthkillyou 21:27, 21 Nov 2007 (PST)

It is. Haha.--Gear 23:09, 21 Nov 2007 (PST)

No it isn't. It just doesn't seem to make sense to me... --Darthkillyou 20:31, 22 Nov 2007 (PST)

Well it makes sense to me. Maybe due to the way its written.--Gear 21:28, 22 Nov 2007 (PST)

"An area that portals cannot enter, or in other words, overlap. Used to prevent portals from overlapping onto non-portal textures."

That's still not quite right... Make a big cube room and put a metal texture on half of one of the walls. Portal won't let you fire a portal within 32 inches of the metal even if your crosshair is on the portable surface. I'm pretty sure that the Bumper will both let you fire a portal no matter how close your crosshair is to the metal, and then move the portal so that its edge is on the metal. --volt 23:51, 22 Nov 2007 (PST)

Putting this into words is pretty hard, although, a picture might demonstrate it pretty easily.--Remmiz 00:09, 23 Nov 2007 (PST)
I was just about to do this very thing. After I learned exactly how to use it, of course! --volt 00:23, 23 Nov 2007 (PST)
I'm not a wiki-pro yet, so I don't know how to place thumbnails to images I've uploaded. Here are the pictures:
