TeleportGateway

Description
This mod adds a block that can be used to teleport players and ships.

[Use at own risk, teleports are challenging things to code and I may of missed something. Tested well locally and on servers though.]

Example Station here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3289714761

Simply add the same Gateway Name at 2 locations and trigger a Jump from the block.

You can show the sphere and adjust the size of the teleport area from 1 to 300m.

You can enable it for Players or Ships.

Teleports will be relative to the block (this is why I used a flight move block for the model).

Admin Only Version here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3289974450

I've exposed sphere on/off and jump so you can hook this up to events, sensors, relays (my favorite) and timers without an issue.

Small grid works too. Be careful if you're standing on block, you might want 2-3 blocks padding before teleporting to a large grid as the sphere starts in the center of the block.

Suggested uses:

Setup jump stations to other planets for your Rover Only playthrough.
Make a public Space Elevator replacement.
Add Jump Gate stations to far off planets.
Make your own Tardis that is bigger on the inside.
Make your own stargate replacement or rings.
Fake a giant tunnel through a mountain.
Use it to automate cargo transfers..
Use to move things around your base (since automating rover pathing is a pain)

If you want to teleport your Ore back to base try VTS Voxel Teleport System:

Disclaimers:

This mod is not balanced for survival, it doesn't have energy costs or distance checks, its perfect for a server with friends or for admins to put in specific admin stations.

Lots of subgrids are likely to cause an issue.

Sometimes rovers wheels would get stuck after a teleport, relogging or teleporting more would fix it.

Please let me know what you think and any issues you might run into.

What would a survival balanced version look like?

Yes I have quite a few ships that are either too long to fit in the bubble or Just Very large all around. 😅

@Potango Thanks! its pretty big at max size, you could send a full army of fighters. Do you have some mega ship that isn't fitting in the 300? Or just more for fleet transport?

maybe being able to increase the sphere size even more would be nice but wonderful mod anyways! Great work :)

@Stella So glad you're enjoying it :)

I love this mod so incredibly much, long awaited fall of the Jump Drive

KevMeUp, Thanks for your quick response
if we could include the "gateway name" in the custom data that would be cool.
KevMeUp  [author] 25 Jan @ 6:14pm 
@RTJdu13 not at this time. For now, you can have many teleport blocks next to each other, just make sure the space/offset is identical on the other sides.

hello.
GREAT job sir.
However, is it possible to configure the "gateway name" dynamically with a program block?
KevMeUp  [author] 4 Nov, 2024 @ 5:04pm 
@enigma Currently the gateway block can't teleport a grid that it's on. So you'd need small Satellites/jump gates (relays are great for triggering them and they can be small grid). If you wanted to retreat from any location you could have a small probe you drop with a jump on a timer to send your main ship home.

I'm building a TARDIS. Is there any way to get a ship which has the gate built into it to teleport to the other gate? Basically I want to have multiple gate blocks on the TARDIS exterior so I can jump to different locations. So far the gate will only let me jump from a gate on a different grid, not on the ship itself. I am going to use a script to control the TARDIS exterior remotely from the Interior.
