Here's a very simple idea that could be a huge boon to people in creative mode.
MAPS AS TELEPORTERS
While in creative mode right clicking while holding a map should teleport you to the center of whatever area that map shows, sending you to where the map was crafted.
If it's a map of the Overworld or The End you'll appear standing on top of the highest block placed in those coordinates.
If it's a map of the nether, you'll appear in the unoccupied 2 block vertical space closest to y=64. If there is no unoccupied vertical space then it'll simply carve a 2 block hole for you to appear in at y=64. It would never deposit you on the outside of the bedrock layers.
This would make it easier and faster to travel between different projects while in creative mode, without needing to use outside teleportation mods to assist you.
i think there should be.. whats it called a map gui? sorta like workbenches and stuff, basically you can make markers for areas, in creative mode you cna teleport anywhere on the map.
How about right-clicking it bring up a GUI where you could teleport to any point you've marked on the map or you could mark where you are?
The advantage of just right clicking with a map is that it avoids the need to add a new GUI or interface. Just click and go.
There are pros and cons to adding a more complex system. More complexity would provide more options and control, but it would be less streamlined and take more work to add.
Pro's And Con's
Con:People in creative servers going in and getting a map and spamming the right-mouse key lagging and or stopping the server
Con:It would be fine but you might find yourself in the middle of a non generated chunk.
Pro:Faster way of getting around to builds
Pro:Could be used to get out of risky situations.

To prevent lag, in SMP people might be delayed from teleporting again until a short period of time has passed.
You could not possibly wind up in a non-generated chunk, because someone must first visit the chunk to create a map there.
It would not be useful for getting out of "risky" situations because it would only work in creative mode. Teleportation like this is far too powerful for survival or adventure.
f it's a map of the nether, you'll appear in the unoccupied 2 block vertical space closest to y=64. If there is no unoccupied vertical space then it'll simply carve a 2 block hole for you to appear in at y=64. It would never deposit you on the outside of the bedrock layer
That chunk might not be explored It would not be useful for getting out of "risky" situations because it would only work in creative mode. Teleportation like this is far too powerful for survival or adventure.
HEXAHEDRON, Y U NO THINK OF BAD IDEA! Sorry just had to. Anyways good idea! I have always hated needing to go from point to point in creative. Flying is too slow.
I think that when you put the map in your hand, it should free the mouse, so you could put the mouse anywhere on the map, then just left-
click on a place on the map to teleport there.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
A hunter who chases two rabbits will catch neither
what if you could teleport anywhere on the map well as long it a chunk on the map like for example if you left clicked on the edge of the map you would not be teleported there so it just makes it easy(er) to get to place to place like for example you know how when you die on superflat world and you get randomly spawned well if you have good ol' mr.map you just could teleport and for any1 thinking that you cant die on creative mode make a superflat creative mode and dig straight down and you'll see so any way when you use the amazing map teleporter when you die on a superflat map you could go back to doing whatever u where doing before

Void.
Couldn't the image of the map be used as a GUI? You would just move the arrow on it to where you need to go, or something like that.
Support for you anywyas.

Would make getting from place to place in creative mode ALOT easier.
(Not that it isn't already pretty damn easy, with flying and all.)
click on a place on the map to teleport there.
I think because when in creative mode you can already fly which makes traveling easy, this doesn't need to be added.
I suggested this before the upgrade to the tp command was announced.
It'd still be handy to have this though, to avoid having to memorize coordinates or write them down for every area.
