📋 About This Mod

XPortal

An AnyPortal revamp.

Description

XPortal lets you select a portal destination from a list of existing portals.

No more tag pairing, and no more portal hubs!

Features

Select a destination

When interacting with a portal, instead of entering a tag which has to match another portal's, XPortal lets you choose the portal's destination from a list.

For your convenience, this list also shows you how far away the portals are.

Default destination

A Portal can be marked as the "Default Portal". When a Default Portal has been set, all newly built portals will immediately connect with that portal, without you having to go into the portal configuration panel.

Longer names

XPortal completely removes the character length restriction on portal names, so that you can give your portals clear and descriptive titles.

Ping a portal location

Forgot where you put your portal? You don't need to teleport to it to find out. Just click the Ping button next to the list, and XPortal will show the selected portal on your map, while also pinging its location to all players on the server.

If you prefer to play without a map, this button can be hidden, either by using the 'nomap' global key, or by setting 'PingMapDisabled' to 'True'.

Multiplayer

XPortal has been built with multiplayer support at its core. All players must run the same version of XPortal. If you play on a dedicated server, that too needs to have same version of XPortal installed.

Gamepad support

The XPortal UI will respond to gamepad input when configuring your portal. As of v1. 2. 10 it even shows you the gamepad keyhints!

The controls are as follows:

[]'A' / 'Cross' - Submit (i.e. press the OK button)

[]'B'/ 'Circle' - Cancel

[]'Y' / 'Triangle' - Ping the selected portal

[]'X' / 'Square' - Show/hide the contents of the dropdown

[*]'D-Pad Up' / 'D-Pad Down'
