I have hit a roadblock in a idea I was having, Is it possible to use 2 portals that teleport between each other only while inside your lot? I wasn't sure if the mods the server uses allow something like that. The portal as of now goes to the town spawn.
Town portals can only be made to lead to one of the spawn buildings in one of the worlds, or to one of the players' residences (will lead to thier teleport point). See the Empire Guide and the post on town portals for more info: http://empireminecraft.com/guide/residence http://empireminecraft.com/threads/town-portals.173/
There should be a command that you could set a port to teleport you by x, y and z coords. I'm sure it would'nt be that hard to figure out a way to make it work.
I really like the X,Y,Z idea. But maybe only if it is in your own lot. The problem is that some people have doors and closed off areas in their res, and someone else could build a portal to teleport into it...
Also, if it were to be used to teleport to specific locations in the Wilderness or Nether, this would detract from the survival experience around which Empire Minecraft is built.
Of course thats what I'm saying. that would'nt be fair to be able to tp to someone elses lot without them knowing. It should be bound to your own lot to do as you see fit. This would open an entire new way of building residences methinks.
Or how about you can set your own "warps" to be used only by yourself to get around your res? So for example the command could be "/warp set farm" to create a new warp, so to warp to the farm type "/warp farm". And to see all your warps you could type "/warp list" To go even further there could be a flag system in-place to allow people to use the warps, the command could be "/res pset {playername} warp true". Or even detail which warp, so for the farm only "/res pset {playername} warp farm true". Just an idea that I came up with. This will probably be better than having portals all over your res. ~ Note the warps can only be created by yourself on your res in the town. ~MR2
