    I know Chucklefish is working on them, but until they release this we need a mod to let us teleport to different areas on a planet. I want to make a space station above my home world and cannot, and when searching for teleporter mods they all stoped development because Chucklefish is making one. Cmon guys...at least make it work with the new update untill the devs give us the tele... :redpanda:

    Funny you mentioned that... in admin mode, at the 3d printer, you can make a "remote teleporter" now.
    It claims to allow you to link into the teleportation grid from anywhere, but I haven't tested it yet.

    Testing now.[DOUBLEPOST=1423372029][/DOUBLEPOST]
    It only lets you teleport to ship, home,or outpost. no linking it between different ones on a planet

    <twitch> There's functionality in-game to teleport someone straight to an outpost and yet we have to deal with that idiotic gate system? <twitch>

    I don't see why your asking others to waste their time fixing a system which will implemented later on by CF.
    You should take charge - learn to mod - implement it your self and let others use it.

    Interesting thing with the latest patch, is seems the planetary spawn point automatically changes if you would spawn inside a liquid block (or at the very least the healing water on a barren planet)
    Annoying when you actually want to spawn in a pool of healing water, but an interesting thing I found.

    It's part of the planned, upcoming bookmarking system intended to allow you to seamlessly teleport to any planet/moon you've already been to.....provided you chose to bookmark it with a teleporter.

    Never found it that annoying to be honest.

    It does get irritating after a while you have all that unnecessary walking to do.

    I always jump and dash from the gate to the outpost, kinda fun.

    But I agree it will need to be looked at as the game gets bigger and more missions become available. With the addition of tiered transporter technologies it could progress quite well, personal teleporters like return to turn scroll type things, home teleporters, outpost teleporting etc
    Frankly I think the gates are too grand for a simple outpost, they seem so epic and thought provoking yet there is one in each system and the pay off is so mundane.
    Would be cool to see them as rare finds that teleport players to strange instances and dungeons, but that's another subject all together

    I had an instance where during unstable where my spawn changed halfway across the map. I would say now that it could have been because of water(rain puddles would have been the only way) but this feature is like brand new isn't it?

    I'm pretty sure it wasn't in the previous version of giraffe (1.1?) since I was successfully spawning in healing water on that world (until the update broke that world.... Unless... Oh my, the spawn would have changed!)
    I don't think there's a way to force the spawn point to move to a specific, or even a previous location. (Unless you flooded the entire world save a platform :p)

    I would like to be able to "upgrade" the Ships teleporter to be able to Beam up to my ship from underground or deep under Water. I DON'T want to climb out of my ridiculusly deep Hole in the Ground all the way to the Top just to teleport back to my Ship. I know you can Save&Exit to achieve the same Effect, but i don't like doing that because it feels like Cheating...

    I agree, its so boring climbing back up. Please add this option.

    Thing is, there nothing prevent a spawn on top of the water, as I found out on a poison planet. :)

    I know some don't like mods, but Your Starbound Crew adds in teleporters to take you to the outpost and to your crew outpost. Also there is an item you can make to teleport out from deep underground.

    Teleporters do exist in stable but you have to use the admin console to get access through normal crafting.

    Nevermind missed some posts
