I was working on fixing and adding the stuff I suggested in the script itself and so far the only thing Ive added is quick portals (the old way that sars had the script) for the wrenches prime fire. So it can have a nice quick teleport to a place, and the more complex portals that delta made. It was really just practice for me because Ive never made weapon scripts. But now I think I got it down.

The old placment of portals doesnt have your view position raised up when you go through them, making it a smooth transition, so I was thinking that mixing some of his position placement code with some of yours would be able to fix it.

I was thinking about this myself when I was working on it, I was thinking about a way to count how many portals the player had, and save it as a varible (nportals), and set up the portals as an array. Then when putting the weapon away:

void weapon_wrench::Idle() {
....
while( 1 ) {
		 if ( WEAPON_LOWERWEAPON ){
                        for(i=0;i<=nportals;i++)
                        sys.trigger( portal[i] );
			sys.wait( 1 );
                 }
                 }

would open them all. I origanally figured that nportals would just save and I would be able to use it again in void weapon_wrench::init() to close them like the way you have it set up. Thats when I realised that nportals wouldnt be saved once the wrench is gone. Maybe theres a way to pass the varible into the other weapon scripts. Im going to keep messing with it until I get something.

I would think that object_closedportal would be the entity, or something along those lines, I havent tried it though.
