Interesting :),
perhaps you can do a example mini mission how to make a interactive mission map with simple basic objects(not just doors) for starters.

Thank you!
I want to keep my tutorials focused and then let the mapper decide what to do with it. So I'd rather make many focused tutorials than one tutorial on a loose subject. :)

I have a question: Is it possible to make a NPC drive a car? (if you could do this in a mod the player wouldn't have to do everything in a mission)

I'm afraid you can't do that easily, no. :(
You can have AI controlled Combine APCs though.

Think you could make a tutorial on optimizing a map? To me that seems where most people have problems mapping at as they don't know what exactly to func_detail or where to put hint brushes

So what if you make it reverse the relationship when it's programmed to fear or ignore? "fear --> ignore" and "ignore --> fear"?
