Description
This plugin intends to set teleporting destinations where player can be teleported if he is standing on anonther destination. To split destinations as if they were on separated servers, player's inventory can be cleared. The player is facing the same direction, after being teleported, as the OP when the destination is created. The teleportation works through different worlds too. You can also use Nether Portals to be teleported. Just add a "TravelGates" Sign on the Nether Portal, facing the player's head. Teleportation blocks also allow you to be teleported around an existing destination. You can also manage additional worlds.
Check this page for more detailed information about the teleportation system.
This plugin is multilangual. There are only 2 languages (English and French) provided with the plugin. You can modify the messages file or create your own in another language.
Compatibility with Bukkit:
This plugin must be used with Craftbukkit version 1.1-Rx. Previous versions won't work.

- Right click on a sign containing on a line [TG] or [TRAVELGATES] (case insensitive) and on another line or on the same line (order doesn't matter) the name of an existing destination : do the same as /tg {destination}.
- Use Nether Portals : Place a TravelGates' sign (see above) on a Nether Portal with the "-ON-" state (defined in messages file), configured with a lever or directly on the sign, and use the Portal as usual. The sign has to be placed on the portal bloc facing the head of the player. You can place the destination on the Obsidian blocks or on blocks beside of the portal.
- Using a teleport block: You can be teleported if you use a teleportation block, for instance lime wool. You have to cover a rectangle surface containing the destination with this kind of block to be teleported. Max range around the destination is 5 block (6 with the destination block). All these block have to be at the same height. Just under the player location when the destination has been added.
- Check this page for more detailed information about Nether Portals and Teleportation block features.
Available options:
- i = clear inventory while travelling to a destination
- a = admin teleport only
- s = instant save when adding a new destination or updating the options
- p = set the position of your destination as following -p(world,x,y,z) or -p(x,y,z), and "y" can be equal to "?"
- r = set restricted destinations where players are allowed to go as following : -r{dest1,dest2,dest3} -r{+dest1,-dest2} -r{} -r
- f = force the teleportation to a destination (without being on another destination)

More exhaustive information in the README.txt file
More about the Nether Portals usage:
- You have to use a TravelGates sign. So, the destination and the TravelGates tag.
- You can use a lever to toggle the state of the Portal or type it manually.
- The states can be modified in the messages file, instead of using -ON- and -OFF-
- -ON- with the tag [TG] (or [TRAVELGATES]) and an existing destination : you will be teleported to the destination
- -OFF- Regular Nether teleportation.
- If the Sign is invalid, you will be teleported to the Nether.
- If the destination is the same where the portal is standing, teleportation will be canceled. If the Portal is not placed on an existing destination, or adjacent to an existing destination, the teleportation will also be canceled.

Known bugs
- If you add other worlds, Nether Portal won't send you to the Nether. Make another nether world and link a TravelGate portal to it or link the portal to the regular Nether world.
- It is not a bug, but you have to know it. If you try to modify the configuration file manually and try to reload all plugins with the /reload command, it would not work. All data is saved when the plugin is disabled, with the current ingame config. So, your configuration manually changed will be ignored.
In Case of Bugs
If you encounter some bugs, please use the /tg debug in game command and send me the server logs by creating a new ticket.You can also enable the debug mode at the beginning of the plugin loading by using the configuration "debug=true" in the configuration file. Thanks.

please tell me how to travel from world to another world
@SupremoSk
There is no ownership feature for the signs and this plugin in general in the current version.
However, you can use the "admintp" option of destinations. If you give the permission for your VIP members to use the admin destinations and not to the casual users, it should work.
For information, this is the permission you have to give to the VIP members: travelgates.admintp # Permission to travel to an Admin's Destination
And the destinations must be created with the "a" option. Example: /tg add vipDestination1 -a You can update an existing destination with this command: /tg update vipDest -a
Do not forget how the inventory is managed through the teleportation. By the default, inventories are protected and kept. But if you add the option "i" to a destination, it will clear the inventory of the traveler.
@Ghomerr
I have 7 sings of Travel gates, but 1 is exclusive use for player having permission vip player. with your plugins can determine who will use the sign.
srry my bad english, I Brazilian.
congratulations for plugin is very very nice
@SupremoSk
Hi. I'm note sure to understand your question. If you want to restric the usage of the teleportation (using signs or Nether portal) you can use the permissions.
Google Tradutor: there is a way of sings for VIPs only?
Brazil: Existe alguma for de criar sings somente para vips?
@Beladorizid
I think this is because Bukkit needs to give their approval before. If you cannot wait, you may get it from there: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/travelgates/files/23-travel-gates-v1-10-17/
Use it at your own risks before the approval. If you want, you can check the source on GitHub too.
Where do I get 10.17?
The download dev link above shows highest version as 10.16.
Thanks Jeff
@Finelarme2
You're welcome !
Perfect, really thanks again.
@Finelarme2
I have answered you on the Bukkit forums. You can use "travelgates".
Hi guy,
Thanks for your plugin. I'd like to know, is it possible to replace the name [tg] on the sign by other word ?
Because "tg" in french means = "shut up" :(.
@Killer2demon
Great ! Thanks for the information.
No problems with latest dev build.
@Wolfenman1013
Why do you need an update? I have just updated it to the recommended build.
Doesn't it work with some new dev builds ?
update the plugin ghomerr
@TheYagich
Could you please paste the complete log of the server startup when you have encountered the line with "TravelGates" in it ? Because, the first pack of log did not mention the plugin, so it could explain why it did not work. But in your pre-previous answer, you have pasted a line of the plugin, so it should work now...
I cannot understand and solve your problem if I have not all the information :)
@Ghomerr
No,its not working:(
@TheYagich
Actually, you should not have to rename the jar file.
Regarding your last reply, it seems the plugins is loaded now. This is message notifies that the configuration file has not been found in the "TravelGates" directory so this file has been created.
Does the plugin work now ?
What is this?
[INFO] [TRAVELGATES] Configuration file not found. New file created with the name : travelgates.conf
May be I need to rename it to "TravelGates.jar"? Because it called "TravelGates-1.10.15.jar"
