I am loading scripts for a custom post type with a function like this :

   global $post_type;
    if( 'portfolio' == $post_type )
    wp_enqueue_script( 'maps_scripts',  get_bloginfo('template_directory') . '/scripts/maps.js');

This works fine when I am added a new post in that post type :

post-new.php?post_type=portfolio

but when I go to edit one with this link

post.php?post=541&action=edit

I lose the portfolio parameter and also those scripts. How can I fix?

Try:

global $post;
if( 'portfolio' == $post->post_type )

Try using get_post_type. 

global $post;
global $post_type;
if((get_post_type($post->ID) == 'portfolio') || ('portfolio' == $post_type)) {
    wp_enqueue_script( 'maps_scripts',  get_bloginfo('template_directory') . '/scripts/maps.js');
}

thanks but that made no difference – zac Jan 2 '12 at 22:40
You may have to set the post_id. I have updated the code above. – imHavoc Jan 2 '12 at 22:54
nope, still doesnt work when i try and go back to edit, i lose those scripts. Does it seem weird to you that I lose the ?post_type parameter when I go to edit or is that expected? – zac Jan 2 '12 at 23:42
