A new, completely rewritten hypergrid Teleport Board, with cleaner code and new features. Can use a web-served destinations list, so it can be updated easily on multiple boards. See it in action on Speculoos Grid.

Features:

  • Single or Multi-columns teleport buttons
  • Destinations are checked after the start and every hour to avoid TP to inactive regions
  • Local destinations can be written as HG links and are automatically converted to local links for teleport, so the same board works inside and outside your grid
  • Destination source can be set from a notecard or from a web server
  • Immediate TP or map (change USE_MAP in config)
  • Different colors for the current region (green) or offline regions (red), customizable
  • Optional background texture
  • Can be formatted with titles (text without URL), spacer (|) and column jump (-)
  • Configuration in a separate notecard to allow easy upgrades

Setup

The destination list can be set by 3 ways

  • from an external website: put the URL in the prim description
  • from a specific notecard: put “card://CardName” in the description
  • fallback if none of the two first method: read the first notecard found.

In previous versions, the destination list used 5 values. We accept this old format for backward compatibility but we recommend the simplified format: Displayed Name|your.grid:port or Displayed Name|your.grid:port: Region Name or Displayed Name|your.grid:port:Region Name|x,y,z

  • Empty lines are ignored
  • Lines commented with “//” are sent to the owner during initialization
  • Lines containing only a string (and no URL) are drawn as simple text
  • Lines containing only a separator (“|”) are drawn as an empty line (spacer)
  • Lines beginning wish “#” are ignoredteleport

Although commenting lines is useful to disable them temporarily (#) or display help messages (//), it slows down the initialization, so it is better to avoid it as much as possible.
