OK I need you guys to tell me everything you know about port

[CLOUDspawn]

I'm going to make a portal to another point in the level. But it will be like a pit. People will fall in it and warp to another area of the map.
I need to know what are the different types of portals. I need to know how to link them via trigger objects and everything. Thanks.

I tried using an example from a converted map. but it had too many layers. the top layer was a trigger but I couldn't tell where it was linked to.

Just put a brush in your pit, apply the texture: common/trigger on it.
Select the trigger brush and click RMB. Make it a trigger_teleport.
Place a target_position anywhere in the map you want to spawn from the teleporter-pit. Select your target_position and press N to check the direction you will spawn out from the teleporter.
Now select FIRST your trigger_teleport brush and next the target_position. Once you selected both just press ctrl&k to link your 2 brushes, a blue line should be drawn between if you did it right.
Here you go with your teleporter pit.

If you also mean that you want to see yourself flying through the portal Team Arena style, that's done by teleporting to a separate map area and back.
