Changes
- tone down the primary fire emitters.

With this change I go from 120fps to around 110 which is much more reasonable.

I'll load it up later today.

It was much more severe for me on Minus-KitchenSink, yikes got down to 55fps. So glad its fixed, its just too much fun to pick people up.

I don't think we've gotten enough use of the portals it makes though, usually by the time I make them and get them set up, boom, dead. Is there a way to make them persist longer after you die? I guess that does run the risk of making the map into swiss cheese but maybe 30-45 s after boom (which mostly with that vehicle respawn should be about that anyway).

I did make one other change. To close an enemy's portal, you have to shoot it with another portal gun. Previously, any projectile would do it. We did that because we were worried it would get abused. Hopefully it's not an issue.

Good move I think, it was too easy to destroy them once everyone figured out they could shoot them with just about anything.

It would be really cool if all other projectiles actually went in and came out the other side.

I believe the projectiles do but hit scan does not?

Yep that's right. Projectiles but no hit-scan. Set one side in front of the enemy core and the other in front of your mino and blast away :D

Would linkatron be able to charge stuff through the portal?

Nope, alt fire is a hitscan weapon. It needs to be a projectile. You could shoot a YEAAAHHHH nuke through it.
