Description
A remake of one of my first maps, Lasers and Light Bridges, that fixes some minor issues and adds an introductory room to demonstrate the idea behind the puzzle. This difficult puzzle uses light bridges and lasers in a careful balancing act.

I didn't solve this without your YT walkthrough. The gears of my brain struggle to manipulate the logic of three 'temporary' light bridges, each with their non-adjacent activation switches, plus the physics of two portals. I hope I absorb something of use from viewing the solution and then following the steps myself. Otherwise I am doomed to eternal stupidity :steammocking:

Good grief! This one took me a looooong time to figure out. Great challenge.

You can stand on the glass to skip a brainy step towards the end. Also noticed there's a few other unintended strats below. But not the biggest deal since 1. it's not that different from the intended move anyway and 2. it's an old map, so oh well. Just thought I'd point it out nevertheless. Still a very good and challenging bridge/laser puzzle nevertheless. (Originally found this in the old version of the puzzle, "Lasers & Light Bridges, still present in this version.)

Difficulty: 7/10
Design: 8.5/10
Enjoyed: 8/10

Luckily I remembered that figuring out the first step was the hardest part for me in the original. Solved this one a lot quicker, but still required some effort.

Since it doesn't add anything but a tutorial room, you may as well delete the original. Btw the tutorial mechanism is not the one that raises the difficulty of this map. Already in the original I became desperate with the one move that involves the upper surface/platform .

There was some jank at the end. If you didn't have the cube that redirects a laser at an obtuse angle placed just right, the light bridge it activated would randomly turn off while you were attempting to use it to get to the exit door.

I enjoyed it. I found a several different ways to solve it, though.

Found an unintended solution, its a lot faster than the intended. https://cs2bus.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2118527364
You just have to move this box forward while not disrupting the connection.

Very challenging and fun map, liked it a lot! But I think I didn't use the intended solution. I placed the cubes as shown in the screenshot below and did the same thing as Asterion at the end
