Portals always show up behind grounds, but they're still there. But what about a ground that portals can't be spawned on?


Right now, portal maps are either really easy or really annoying portal spam that don't offer much thinking. There's not much skill involved in portal maps, just a time killer.

In Portal--the game we borrowed this feature from--there are anti-portal grounds where you can't spawn portals. This is a pretty big and useful obstacle in Portal and it'd be even more useful in Transformice.

How it works
• Anti-portal grounds would, by default, have no collision with mice nor objects.
• A portal placed inside of an anti-portal ground would not spawn.

How it'd look
• Dark, square-patterned walls similarly to anti-portal walls in Portal


This would be immensely useful and allow a slew of innovative portal maps to pop up that offer something more than portal spam.

Not sure how much work this would require (and whether it's realistic to expect Atelier 801 to take the trouble), but I agree with you that portal shaman maps are rather annoying to play and shaman. It sounds interesting although I feel that other suggested grounds are nicer (for example the "one direction passthrough ground") and that the amount of grounds would become confusing for everyone.

I suppose even just having a ground property that disallows portals would be nice.
It's a pretty simple suggestion and general idea.

Then how come they haven't sued yet? They already have portals.

I love this.

Or it could just be changed so you can't spawn portals in solid ground (that isn't dynamic). It makes no sense.

/support that would be great.

It would prove as more challenging obstacle for shamans, and a new one too. ^^
