Networked (no desti) portals can not see fixed portals on scroll.

Background

A portal with a set destination is a fixed portal. A portal without one is a networked portal.

Description.

If a networked portal is created on a network that already contains a fixed portal, the networked portal will not be able to access it. This is most apparent via the scrolling mechanism w/ the sign -- it functions normally, but does not list any fixed portals.

Observations

This is stable behaviour, and thus, not an issue, but is nonetheless sub-optimal.

Given that a fixed portal can be made to target an already created (and separately directed) fixed portal, being able to do the same thing with a networked portal seems like a logical extension.

Repro steps

One of the easiest ways to demonstrate the full scope of this issue is as follows:

  1. Make a fixed portal
Test1
Test2
TestNet

  1. Connect it to another fixed portal
Test2
Test1
TestNet

  1. Make a networked portal
Test3

TestNet

  1. Make another networked portal.
Test4

TestNet

  1. Make another networked portal.
Test5

TestNet

  1. Make another fixed portal.
Test6
Test1
TestNet

  1. Right click on one of the networked portals' signs; keep right clicking to scroll through the destinations.
  2. Test1, Test2, and Test6 will not be available, but tests three through five will be.
