[HL2:EP2] Game gets stuck after Alyx and Eli get into the lift at the end

[aejsmith]

When Alyx and Eli get into the lift down to the chopper at the end, the game gets stuck and won't progress. I can still move around, but both of them get stuck in the same position and nothing will happen after that.

It's probably for the best that Eli got stuck there, to be honest..

In all seriousness, there's a prevalent issue with scripts randomly getting stuck and we're looking into it. To unblock you in the short term, usually if you restart the map or reload from a savegame before the script starts it works the second time.

Heh, true :)

The save game was one that was in my Steam Cloud from when I last played on Windows, reloading it didn't fix it. I'll see if starting the map from the beginning works.

Starting a new game from the beginning of the map worked.

Ya, you know when HL-3 is out Alyx will be out for blood.
