    Currently, the teleporter stronghold is confusing, not descriptive, and teleports players in locations they don't understand.

    It's an amazing concept however, and could be slightly modified to be really nice.

    Firstly, the location the teleporter places players should be, in my opinion, over the chest of the stronghold. I know that teleports can warp you to OTHER strongholds, and not just teleporter strongholds, but when using a teleporter stronghold to warp you to another teleporter stronghold (which is like 98% of it's use on my server currently) it behaves oddly, often placing players in the ground and killing them, or outside the room where the teleporter is located.

    Additionally, the sign placement is seems to be very picky, and must be placed in a block exactly above the stronghold chest. This is also kind of odd. Couldn't the stronghold detect the sign similar to how it detects which blocks are close to it? could it read the sign from there? No where does the herostronghold tell you how to use the sign, or where to place it (From my knowledge). Everytime I forget how to do it, I need to find the changelog where you mentioned the change to teleport signs because the video you show doesn't show the updated version.

    It's in my humble, non-coder opinion also, that the signs's syntax could be simpler than you have it currently. Would it be possible to have the stronghold detect any sign within it's radius (the same radius the blocks need to be placed in) and find if any stronghold names are present?

    For instance, a sign might say: "This warp takes you to "BelowZero" where the stronghold's destination is to the stronghold named BelowZero.

    Something like that. In the end, I would just like to see the teleporter be more useful, more user friendly, and cool because at it's heart, it really is :D I think you might agree.
