Just climb the stairs and watch as your character begins to move without the use of ints.

wow, this looks weird...

what're "ints"?

Maybe you should make a tutorial on making curves like that. That's pretty good. The Cube2 video Hirato put up is kinda hard to learn from.

EDIT: What version of Sandbox did you use to make this?

It seems it uses a series of mini-slopes in the tunnel, the player slides against them which makes it go forward.

Why use a tutorial when you can use an image?
Dev-Texture Guide: Circle.
Dev-Texture Guide: Circle.
Download that and add it to your "default_map_settings.cfg". Simples!
