Guppy's Teleport Portal Mod

[Guppycur]

Hm, can you paste a screenshot of your portal, so I can kinda reproduce it here and try it out?

[vonerich]

Both of these are on the third level of my base. There are several air blocks above each. I often am deposited 1 to 2 stories below these when returning.

These are on the top level of a 3 story building (see edit history)

[Guppycur]

I've got no answer.

I fell through again. Seems to be a bit finicky where I'm standing on the portal when I press E

 

try not standing on the portal but just the ground around it?

[vonerich]

No luck with that either.

Yeh they're called "chunk observers" and portals are already set up to be those.  I'll forward your post to sphereii to see if he has any commentary.  Hm. 

 

Any chance sphereii had a thought on why the portals don't load the chunks they are located in when the game is loaded?  

 

Perhaps there is a config file somewhere to force the loading?

[Guppycur]

Here's what he said.

 

To answer the question, yes, you could. We probably don't want that though. That would mean that all chunks with a portal would have to be loaded at all times, for all players.

And a sole chunk may not even be possible to load on an individual basis, so it may have to load all the chunks that all the other players are.

I think the portals manager needs refactored to be more in line with the FireManager, and allow distribution through that way

...so I translate that as "he will rewrite it at some point".

that is helpful.

 

In my case I am running a two person co-op so I would only be loading a few of the chunks at the beginning as we have limited portals.

 

Any chance he knows of a command line that would force load the portal chunks?  if not not a major issue

 

I do fully understand on a large server why you wouldn't keep all portal chunks for all players always loaded

Will this mod be making a return for Alpha 21, Guppy?

Yeh in fact with the new version of score I suspect it'll work right now.  Haven't tested tho, nor am I 100% certain that the new version of score is out. 

[Dragonchampion]

AAlright, I'll give it a try. Thanks!

These errors prevent players from constructing the portals.

Yeh it's an a20 mod that hasn't been updated to a21 yet. 

[Guppycur]

Updated to a21, link is the same.

[Baggins]

Hello. It may not belong in this topic. Can I remove/disable teleport related stuff from 0-Score mod? I searched but didn't really find an answer.

[Guppycur]

Sure; the easiest way is to just not load my portal mod, since that's where the recipes come from.  sCore does the code backside, but it doesn't enable anything that lets the player make portals.

Hi ! I really loves your mod but i'm still wandering if it would be possible to have a way to teleport to a different portal from only one, like, when we clic on it, it shows a dialog or something and we can choose where we want to go. This way, i will not need to have 18734309 of portals in my base, loll.

 

Otherwise, thank you for the mod =)
