Network Teleporter

Description
Replacement for the abandoned Teleport Network mod using the current crafting recipe and an improved user interface. Allows for teleportation between any network teleporter without the hassle of markers.

Two levels of research are possible to extend the system. The first allows teleportation to waypoint machines and GPS Tool waypoints. The second massively reduces teleportation costs and unlocks a suit update that lets teleportation from any location using suit power. The default key binding is Left Control-Space.

Key Binding Configuration

Key Binding can be changed by editing the NetworkTeleporterModKeyBindings.xml file. If the file doesn't t exist it will be generated on first time run. Existing configuration files will automatically update to add any new available settings while keeping any existing settings.

To avoid conflict issues with Steam workshop updates, configuration files are now kept in a separate folder listed below by platform. Any old configuration files found in workshop folder will be automatically moved.

Windows: Users\<UserName>\AppData\Local\ProjectorGames\FortressCraft\Mods\ModSettings\MadVandal.NetworkTeleporter

Linux: /home/<UserName>/.config/unity3d/ProjectorGames/FortressCraft/Mods/ModSettings/MadVandal.NetworkTeleporter

Mac: /Users/<UserName>/Library/Application Support/ProjectorGames/FortressCraft/Mods/ModSettings/MadVandal.NetworkTeleporter

Information on how configure key bindings is available in the Key Binding Configuration.txt file located in the parent folder.


Research Requirements

Automation
Scan of Crystal Deposit
Scan of Lithium Ore
(Same as vanilla teleporter machine exclude diamond crystal scan)

There's never been any reported issues with using this on server nor have I heard of this kind of thing. You'll need to look at the output_log.txt file in FC_64_Data subfolder of the server and clients to find out info on the error. The log file is regenerated each time the game is launched so you'll have to close the game when it happens and look at the file. It could be there some mod part missing on the server. Putting mods on server requires specific steps documented in the dedicated server PDF.

So we managed to get the teleporters to work we had not put the config or the config had not been generated that seemed to fix that however the new issue is every time we collect research it kicks us from the server as if the server crashes however the server does not crash we just get kicked from it and that is a relatively new thing since the config has been activated

Forgive my ignorance but is there a bug with this working on servers I understand you haven't updated the mod in a while and that is completely okay was just curious because I was trying to use it

It going backwards...will get that updated today.

Hello again. Sorting the list by name works fine. But I've just tried "sorting by distance" for the first time, and that list looks pretty random/unsorted.
Robert 15 Oct, 2018 @ 7:18am 
Whoa, just noticed that you already added the sorting. Awesome, thanks a lot!
Mad Vandal  [author] 10 Oct, 2018 @ 4:12pm 
Adding sort is coming up on the to-do list
Robert 10 Oct, 2018 @ 12:57am 
Great mod! But what I'm desperately missing is a way to sort the list of locations alphabetically and by distance. Would it be hard to add this, please?

I tried the beams, and it worked. What I did is I used power from the CPH to power every teleporter, and every vertical lift, and now everything works. Wonderful. Thanks! :)

The spead of power through LPT beams is a key mechanism to trigger segments to be loaded into a world after startup. By using the cheat power cubes there is nothing to force the segment to load other than the playing moving close enough to it. You'll need to run LPTs beams.
