TravelPortals
TravelPortals is a plugin which allows users to teleport between locations using structures made mainly of obsidian. The goal of this was to create a quick way to move users from place to place without making the method to do so completely free.
MinecraftZero has created a video showing them in action. It is available here!

Hey, it's always nice to hear that the plugin is being put to good use. It should be around for quite a while, though I've stopped using it on my own server for now.
I have every intention of keeping it up to date, and I'm sure that even if I stopped, someone else would take it on. That's what the source code is available for.
Oh, and if I ever did implement the currency thing, it would be optional - just like permissions were and still are. I don't intend to do so still, but even if I did, I'd never force it on people.
Glad you like the plugin, and thanks for commenting.
@cppchriscpp
Thank you SO MUCH! My server has been running this plugin for some time, and I just don't know where we would be without it! (Have people at insane coordinates... like 6500x,11000z) It's just to hard to 'walk' to each place, let alone try to make a rail system that spans that far... This Plugin has been VERY Loved by all of my players, and myself! I hope you don't ever give in to the Currency thing! We have all been against any in game money/currency system from the start, and that would be a deal breaker if this ever went that way :(
Again thank you! I hope that some way we are able to help keep this running/bug free for as long as you're willing to work on this project! :) I was asked to "Let the person know that made the portals, we would be extremely sad if we ever lost them" lol Thanks again, from myself and my friends/players! (about 22 people) :D
For FordRacer2007, if 'some idiot' could obtain the insane amounts of materials it would take to make an entire portal island... I would be checking in to That, not worrying about having a Portal Hub (My server has a Portal Hub, centralized on one of my players roofs, and it has been Extremely convenient and taken care of by all my players! Even the small kids that play their parents characters, have made sure to take care of it, because nobody want's to lose the portals!) Not to mention I'm one of the only people on my server that can seem to Remember all the steps How to make them. :) So nobody want's to try and repair them if something happens :/
THANK YOU to cppchriscpp!
@Silnt
In the config, set doorType to be some other block, or just air? (Block id 0) I haven't tried using just air, but I don't see any reason that it shouldn't work.
is there a way to remove the doors?
<<reply 760236="">>
Np, I know it isn't as easy as it sounds hehe. Anyway, this is the only thing keeping me from installing this plugin ><, I really need to limit the amount or else i'll have some idiot creating islands made out of portals.
@FordRacer2007
Afraid not; sorry.
Hey, is limiting the amount of portals each group can create a feature yet?
@lambik
Nope. I've said before that I do not intend to support any currency systems, and I'm still standing by that. Sorry.
Hi, can you make a command to have paid portals? Thanks
@SuperSC00PER
Uh, is there something you want me to do about that? Then the default permissions would indeed be in effect, unless you turned them off in the configuration, in which case all users can do everything, more or less.
@cppchriscpp
Ok, but I dont have any permissions setup at all, Ive now removed all my permissions plugins and my default "permissions.yml" file is empty.
@SuperSC00PER
Because bukkit allows you to set some default permissions which are active if permissions are active and the user has not set up specific permissions, and what you want is close to those.
@cppchriscpp
Ok no prob. Its a little confusing at the moment. As it stands I (as OP) can create/destroy warps and normal default users cannot destroy my warp zones (because of BuildersPlot mod which is what I want). Whats confusing me though, is that without any permissions set its kinda working the way I want it to work, which is whats confusing me. Why do I not need to apply permissions etc...?
@SuperSC00PER
Then as long as PermissionsEx is using SuperPerms you should be okay. I don't use PermissionsEx and have never really tested with it, so it's possible that there is some sort of conflict. I don't think this is the case, but I can look into it later if you continue to have problems.
You could try putting travelportals.nopermission above the other travelportals permissions, and see if that helps. I haven't really used this with permissions in quite some time, so I have admittedly forgotten exactly how it works with regard to them. I need to leave for work a few minutes ago, so I don't have time to experiment with this right now, either.
If worst comes to worst, the plugin should support some method to forcibly deny permissions to users. You could use this to deny users the ability to travelportals.portal.destroy and travelportals.portal.create if you need to. Let me know if you can't figure it out, and I'll see what I can do when I have some time.
@cppchriscpp
Yes I did, I set it to "true"
@SuperSC00PER
Did you turn on permissions support in TravelPortals' config.yml?
This is what Im using for the default group
I dont seem to need to set permissions for ops though ? Also the default croup seems to be able to use the portals without adding the nodes ?
Hi,
Yes Ive just installed PermissionsEx. In the permissions.yml file theres one group "default" do I need to create an admin/op group in this file ? Also theres a "- modifyworld.*" permission already set for this default group, does this node allow default users to build and destroy ? I dont want this as im using the BuilderPlot plugin to restrict building/destroying in specific areas.
Could you possibly give me an example permissions file setup for PermissionsEx, all I need is ops/admin & a default group.
@SuperSC00PER
Get a permissions plugin and take a look at this page: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/travelportals/pages/permission-nodes/
In particular, if you want your users to be able to use all portals, but not create them or anything else, give them: travelportals.portal.use and travelportals.admin.portal.use and give your ops: travelportals.op
Thank you for your detailed reply. I've just got one question regarding your response. How exactly do I apply the permissions correctly? I'm new to all this and have yet to figure out the permissions end of things.
Love the plugin and thanks in advance. SuperSC00PER
