Two-way Portals?
gompk opened this issue · 4 comments
I noticed that portals are only one-directional. Is it possible to config in such a way that the destination portal automatically links back to the source portal? I know you can use another pearl and link them the other way, but I'm wondering if it can be done automatically.

Up! My friends and I absolutely need this feature!
Hey @gompk ! Its kind of a technical limitation: When you create the portal, the destination chunk might be unloaded so I wouldn't be able to set it's destination. Chunk loading could work but it can cause performance issues if there would be too many portals (like in a SMP).
This is a feature I'd love to have so I'm exploring work-arounds, it might take some time until I can find the best one without too many drawbacks (chunkloading can cause lag, using macros to configure dynamically would not work on <1.20.2, etc)
I'll leave this issue open and let you know when this feature is released!
@gompk Not sure but in my experience u can reuse an already created portal both side by reusing the same crying obsidian with another set of ender pearl/eye (i dont remember rip). It worked for me atleast (last month tested)
