[OUTDATED] [POSSIBLY BROKEN] Transporter

Multiple Profiles, Transporter block (ie: timer block), etc.
First off, great mod. I've been messing around with it for a few hours and I noticed you can link the transporter to a button panel, or timer block, etc.. This is super handy. I do have a few suggestions though.

1) Ability to save up to 4 profiles, and the ability to assign those to the button panel.

This would be great for use in stations/base. This would give you the ability to easily move around a station, or from station to planet/ship/etc. w/o having to configure the transporter every time. Currently I have to build an entire transporter for every button to simulate this feature.

2) A "transporter block" much like the timer block, or really any other block, that has the "guts" of the transporter but with limited features. 1 profile, site-to-site only, etc..

3) A single "booth" version of the transporter, or a 3-wide version, so it's easier to place in the "center" of a grid.

Again, great work on this mod so far. I like it.

1) is in progress. I didn't wanted to add it to the transporter block itself (The UI is already full), so there will be module for it.
2) Well, yes. But in another form: The transporter will be "upgradable" (modules). Depending on your model, you will be able to add range, power or profile/config module)
3) Single Booth for small ships is in progress. Will be coming soon. Maybe we are adding it for large ships too.
But: If you can model or know someone who can model, ask him. The code is easy to adapt to a new model (just a few lines), and we can release it as a new mod (like the 10000 reactor mods here in the workshop). But ask me first, because there will be a few changes (upgrade modules).

I want to add something to 2)
I will make the transporter completly configurable. So you may be able to change some stuff depending what you want.
