Inter-server portal

by postroutine » Post

Hello,

I don't know if anyone have already suggested this feature, I don't found any things.
But I maybe used the wrong words for my search.

The feature suggested would be an Inter-server portal:
* Two servers can build a portal and link them
* When a player pass the portal on one server, he would automatically be teleported on the other server
* The player keep its account, its avatar and inventory

Of course, it would require that the 2 severs use the same mods and game.

This feature would be nice to link communities or to make secret servers that you can only be access through another server.

What do you think ?

Keeping playerdata consistent between servers is easy if they run on the same linux machine, you can link to a shared single playerdata folder from both worlds. Teleporting between servers is not yet possible and will likely no ever be as it allows circumventing severlist bans using a minimal reroute server, among other considerations.
