1. Wear the THiNC Locator. This will show a text coordinates above your head.
2. Go to the first location where you would like to teleport. Write down exactly the coordinates above your head.
3. Go to the next location where you would like to teleport . Write down exactly the coordinates above your head.
4. Repeat step 3 until you are finished with all your locations.
6. Optional: (PICTURES) If you are adding pictures to match with the locations open your inventory window now and go to where the pictures you will be using. Insert individual pictures to the content folder. Note that you do not have to have a picture for each location it will bring up the default image if no picture is specified.
7. Edit the THiNC Teleporter. Click the “Content” tab. Under that Content folder you will see a notecard named “TELEPORT”. Double Click this to edit it.
8. In this notecard there will be simple instruction on format and also two lines that says (You may delete these and start there.):
Demo Private Location:<100,100,100>:BLANK:PRIVATE
Demo Regular Location:<101,101,101>:BLANK
9. On this line, first type the name of your first location (It can be anything you want to call it.).
10. After the location name place a ”:” (no quotes) after it then with no spaces afterwards or in between type the coordinates.
11. WHEN USING PICTURES: If you have a picture to add to this location type ”:” (no quotes) after it. Then type in the exact picture name. If you do not have a picture type ”:BLANK” (no quotes).
12. OPTIONAL: To activate private mode, Type after the coordinates ”:” no spaces then “PRIVATE” if you would like to set this location private, otherwise leave it blank. Private locations are availble to people you put on the ALLOWED notecard. (Owner automatically has access to all private locations).
13. You line should be in this format (the XXX represent numbers and will be from 1-3 digits long), example: LOCATION NAME:<XXX,XXX,XXX>:PRIVATE OPTION
14. You are now done with your first entry repeat (steps 9 - 13) until all location are finished.
15. After typing in all names & coordinates click Save on the bottom of the left hand corner of the TELEPORT notecard.
16. PRIVATE LOCATIONS ONLY: If you did setup Private Locations edit the ALLOWED notecard like how you did witht eh TELPORT notecards. On each seperate line after the instructions type exactly the person's name. Everybody who is in this ALLOWED notecard has access to all Private Locations. Remember Owner's name does not need to be in the notecard. The owner automatically has permission to access all locations.
17. Close all notecard windows & edit windows and now you are ready to use.
18. Do not lock the teleporter in place. (In the Edit, Object window.) That will cause inaccurate teleports.
1. Click the arrows of the teleporter to advance through each location. Once the location is found, right click the teleporter and then left click “TELEPORT”.
2. Private locations will be in yellow text and once selected it will be activated for 30 secs, allowing anyone to teleport for that period of time. Afterwards it will either be set to the next regular locaton or go blank if only private locations are available.
3. This teleporter is meant for use for one person at a time. The teleporter will temporarily disappear when teleporting once it reappears the next person may teleport.
1. I setup the teleporter but it doesn't take me to the right location.
The THiNC Teleporter is based on conventional Teleporter technology that is more reliable than the sit and ride teleporters. Because of this the THiNC Teleporter can make jumps of only 300m at a time up to a maximum height of 1065m. If you are not reaching your destination it might be that the distance is more than 300m away. You might have to place a platform in between with another teleporter to make the distance.
2. I don't understand how the private function works.
The locations are marked private in the location notecard. Anyone that is either the owner of the teleporter or on the access list has access to all the private locations. When the private locations are active anyone can teleport to that location until the 30 second time out or when some uses the teleporter. This means one who has access can let someone up if they don't have access.
3. I'm getting errors like invalid location or it won't recognize my private locations.
The teleporter is very specific in how everything is formated. Make sure that the format is exactly to the example with every comma to the colon.
