Teleportation Expansion

Has there ever been a thought to have a second teleportation skill that would allow for multiple teleport sites or a "round trip" feature?  I was wondering because I would find myself at a street project, wanting to go to a specific area to get the needed supplies I had at my house, but by the time I made it from my house back to the street project, the products needed were already obtained.  I know you can follow people and "piggy back" to each other's teleportation locations, but I think it would be nice to have the independence to move on your own.  I look at this new proposed skill in one of three ways:

1. You would learn the skill and it would allow you to maintain two separate teleportation locations.
2. You would learn the skill and it would give you the ability to teleport to a specific street for a certain amount of time and then return you to the location you originally used the feature at.
3. You would learn the skill and, if you owned a house, it would set up a separate and permanent teleportation location to the block you live on.  You could even have a mission where you have to build a teleportation station for your house to enable the ability.

I know there are ways around this issue, but I think this would be an excellent evolution to the teleportation experience and allow for more mobility as the world continues to grow.

  • I just realized a lot of this is answered in the teleportation tokens thread I just stumbled upon.  Still, I would like to suggest these as potential options for the teleportation expansion and leave this thread open for discussion of potential ways to improve the teleportation process.

  • This was added in the ideas section and I think it would be an interesting addition to the third interpretation of the teleportation expansion idea.A way of teleporting goods back to one's home? It would be awesome if there was a way to send back all the peat moss and soil and guano and jellies and barnacles to my home-clear out the inventory in my bags.
    I might be more interested in the subscription service if that were possible. Posted 21 hr ago by serfer0 | Permalink

  • would it not make things a little too easy though?

    Firstly with street building - it's supposed to be challenging, it wouldn't feel as rewarding if you just went to the project to find what's needed, teleported home and brought the stuff strait back.

    And again with the teleporting goods back back - the point of going on say a mining trip is you have to balance your limited resources and space for resources. If you could teleport goods home then it would make it way to easy and then it would  become boring.

    That's my thoughts anyway!
