Some of us might know that using Ender Pearls for teleportation and faster transportation is very dull, since you can only use them once and you take damage by using them. Here is my idea for a more improved transportation system...
~The Teleport Device~
This is the main item. It will be a placable block that you can put on a regular surface. This will be the crafting recepie for it...
When you place the block a screen pops up, in this screen you will be able to type in a name for the location you are in. Once you are done you can exit and your new transport device will be made. You can rename, destroy, and replace the block at any time you want.
~The Teleport Remote~
This is the item that you use to teleport between devices. With this item you can choose which teleport device you want to travel to. It's almost like Skyrim's Fast Travel, but with more work involved. Here is the crafting recepie...
When you have the remote in your hands, Right Click it and it brings up a menu. This menu lists ALL of the teleportation devices you have created. Simply click on one of the Locations and you will be instantly teleported to that device.
~Advantages~
- It provides easier transportation between areas when you are not up for walking from place to place.
- It is much more effective than the Ender Pearl.
- You can not get damaged unless if you are an idiot and place the device in a pile of stone.
~Disadvantages~
- It takes some work to make both the remote and the device.
- It requires you to use some high level material, so don't think you can get these items early.
- They involve the use of Diamonds, but it is worth using them if you think about it.
Even with such rare materials used to achieve these items, it is worth it in the end when you feel like exploring a certain cave, so you teleport there instead of making a long and hard trek to it on foot.
~FAQ~
Q: Did you search this at all?
A: Yes, I did. Got no results, and nothing as similar to this. This thread is perfectly legit and fresh from the oven.
Q: Herp Derp it's just a lousy and redundant way of "Future Craft"
A: Then tell me this, if you think this will just make Minecraft futuristic, then why is there already Pistons, Buttons, and Redstone Wires?
Q: Hell no, it's just a cheap way of fast travel. No support.
A: Okay then, that's fine, but in some cases, would you rather make a long and hard walk to a certain area and back, or would you do it quickly and easily with a way of faster transportation?
Q: There's already Mineshafts and Boats. We don't need teleporters.
A: That's fine with me if you don't like my ideas. Though with INSTANTANIOUS transportation, I think you would most likely drop your boats and carts for a Teleportation Device.
Please leave some feedback and additional ideas in the comments below. Any support is greatly thanked.
I have nothing to say. This is just... Just... just something for a mod, in which case we have TF2 Teleporter Mod and probably a lot more
True, but the ideas from here and the TF2 Teleporter Mod are slightly more different from eachother. The Mod requires Tags, while this one just needs a remote and a device. Simplicity itself.
But anyways, it's alright if you don't like the idea. I'm fine with it.

Ender pearls damage you for balance. Same with the one use mechanic.
~Advantages~
- It provides easier transportation between areas when you are not up for walking from place to place.
True, but easier does not equal better.
- It is much more effective than the Ender Pearl.
Same as before.
- You can not get damaged unless if you are an idiot and place the device in a pile of stone.
And once more...
~Disadvantages~
- It takes some work to make both the remote and the device.
Which is good.
- It requires you to use some high level material, so don't think you can get these items early.
True.
- They involve the use of Diamonds, but it is worth using them if you think about it.
Correct.
Even with such rare materials used to achieve these items, it is worth it in the end when you feel like exploring a certain cave, so you teleport there instead of making a long and hard trek to it on foot.
So, you can avoid mobs?

No response.

A: Then tell me this, if you think this will just make Minecraft futuristic, then why is there already Pistons, Buttons, and Redstone Wires? Too touchy of a subject. No response.

Your argument against cries of "This is overpowered" is that this is easier than normal?

True.

I do not care about the materials involved. If the end product is overpowered, the whole thing is overpowered.
1. True, your facts on the Ender Pearls are correct, but one flaw is that you are limited in distance in which you can throw the pearl. So that basically means it makes the item a bit under the bridge compared to this idea. Not that the idea is overall better than them.
2. Yes, you can avoid mobs by using this system. Why do you ask?
3. I'm not saying that I fear that people might mark this idea as overpowered, i'm just saying it will prevent the extra hours you are going to use just to get from one place to another.
4. So anyways, do you support? Half Support? Nothing? The majority of your thoughts on the idea were quite positive, so do you give this any sort of rating?
Perhaps if it were more like a special redstone wire, say, 8 redstone with a diamond in the middle, which gives 16 of Tele-redstone, which then you can use to connect Tele-blocks, and when standing on one, you can teleport to the other one?

The limits of the ender pearl is the reason it is not overpowered.
2. Yes, you can avoid mobs by using this system. Why do you ask?
Instantaneous teleportation is not exactly the most balanced thing, and avoiding mobs as well just makes it seem unbalanced.

No problem with that.

I do not like the base idea, but it could be pulled off with some tweaks. Half-support.
But anyways, thanks for your feedback.
I don't know... I mean its pretty op to me. Sure it takes diamonds, but once you get to a certain point in the game diamonds don't become such a problem. Maybe for creative only, but otherwise I don't think its balanced enough.
Maybe make it a certain number of uses (Unless it was placed in creative mode of course) and then after its out of uses, you can recharge it by putting another diamond or an ender pearl in it? OR it takes an ender pearl for each teleport?
this is to over-powered and we got ways to teleport already via Synced Nether portals and Command blocks.
reason i think its over powered if your on a server and if its pvp if you get attacked you can simply teleport away or the other way around.

Balance it more, then Ill support.
