    That's very cool, and it could be very useful in many maps.

    Hey, you used my video tutorial :D

    Anyways, I hope I got it right during the video(it worked for me anyways) this is a pretty nifty thing to know. I put your map in the video description too and your map's gotten a good 100 or so downloads after putting it up.

    Also, the way I set it up with the One Way Door 4 I could still jump around normally on the flooor above the one way door; it usually keeps you on the ground but not with my setup for some reason.

    Yeah man, I randomly came across it on YouTube today. I had the urge to search my gamertag and see if anybody had captured a gameplay on Sequence. You basically got it right. I frickin love the usage of the armor ability. I'm so going to further look into the uses of those. And I really, really appreciate you linking to my map. Thanks a lot bro.

    Also, if it keeps you on the ground, that's because the shield door proabably wasn't low enough. It should be around 0.2 and a half units from the top surface of the floor.

    No no, I mean that it worked fine when the one way was 0.1 units underneath the floor.

    Downloading your map last week, I broke it down so I could figure out how this nifty little trick worked. I'm surprised at how simple it was, and impressed by it's uses. I'll definitely be trying to incorporate one of these in a future map. This would be great to add to the forging 101 section (whenever it gets up and running). Great find!

    just to clarify during the video, when i lowered the one way door it was already one unit underneath the position of where the floor was. Lowering it down by another unit would have made it 2 total height units underneath the floor.
