Player Portals

A portal that only the owner can use with an ID.

The owner types the command: /tp <username> <portal ID>
and that player is teleported to that portal.

Uses: When giving specific players the code without telling any others; trapping people in "jails" and such.

What do you think?

Re: Player Portals

Could be expanded a little bit more.

1) Do they take the action of the portal? Say I teleport someone to the portal id 3, but the portal #3 leads to portal #4. Do I actually get teleported to #4?
2) How do you exit if I'm moving all over the place?

Overall, I don't see the need for such a command. I guess it may be "required" in a few scenarios, but overall it's an avoidable issue, since the person you want to put in jail or give the code isn't name-specific.

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

Re: Player Portals

1) No, you get teleported to #3

2) I'm not sure what you mean. :/

Re: Player Portals

I would prefer it as a command rather than a portal, but good idea!

However, like Tako said, there are very few uses for this, so it's really just a waste of time. It would be nice, but it's so minor.

Some guy named Nooba is jumping all around the place, and you teleport him to portal 1. How does he exit portal 1?

Because, now, you can exit a portal depending on your entry and how the entry portal is positioned. With this there is no entry portal, therefore screwing up the physics on how to exit the portal.

----->:) (<-- Nooba)
/tp Nooba 1

<----- [>] ----->?
or
<----- [<] ----->?

This... ^ (the direction of the portal) must be taken into account.
