[HELP] Sector portal issue

[Yousuf Anik]

Hi there! Recently I've learned to make interactive sector portals and I've already implemented it on my map. It was working fine and opened a great opportunity to design my map in better way. But I noticed that as soon as I made some other components in my map such as a ladder in other part of the map, the portals are no longer working for some reason. It is showing this error>>

 

 

Note that I did work on totally different part of the map and I did nothing on the portal part. When I step on the hole I can't fall down, as if a fake floor is blocking me. Also I can't see through the sky when I step on the hole>>

 

I tried googling about this problem but honestly I don't seem to understand the error I got and what is causing this. So can anyone explain why this happens? What can I do to solve it and prevent it from further happening?

While you were adding other sections to your map, you most likely inadvertently connected the two sides of the portal with a physical connection. You shouldn't do this, it'll turn the interactive portals visual-only (as you've experienced). Find where the physical connections are and replace them with portals.

 

Funny enough, this is mentioned in the pinned comment of the DarkstarArchangel tutorial video on sector portals you posted a comment on only 3 days ago.

Right, I found it where I joined the part by a door and now when I separate it like before it's working fine again.

 Haha I was the one who commented wrong and then told sorry lol :D From this video I learned actually and I saw the pinned comment but as I said honestly I didn't understand it before until I face it. Now I get it that it's a little tricky. Thanks very much for your easy explanation :)
