**This plugin exists to continue the maintenance of the original Ancient Gates plugin.**
This plugin can allow those with permission to create gates. These gates will transport/teleport any player or entity that enters that gate to the designated location. This is a very easy to use, easy to maintain transportation plugin! As a bonus, the gates can look any way you like!
To get started, try the ingame command: /gate

FAQ
How do I create a gate?
Using the command /gate create [id] will create a gate with the name of "[id]". You then stand wherever you choose to make the gate (making a frame out of seemingly anything (besides, say, lava or water) and do a /gate setfrom [id]. This will set the "from" position (where players must walk into) where you stand. You then go to where you want to have players teleport to, and type: /gate setto [id] and it set that position to where you stand. Once this is all set up, you now open the gate with /gate open [id]. This should open the portal and allow users to enter them at any time.
Who can destroy a gate?
Anyone, so long as the gate is closed. To enable light-weight (1 block radius) protection, ensure the gate is open. For more advanced protection, use a plugin such as WorldGuard, Towny, GriefPrevention, etc.
What is Vault and where can I find it?
Vault is an API plugin that gives AncientGates access to multiple permissions systems. It is required if you wish to use permissions and can be found here: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/vault/
Is there economy integration?
Yes. Set "useEconomy" to true in the config file (conf.json), and use the command /setcost [id] [cost] to set gate use costs. Newly created gates default to 0.0 (i.e. free). To bypass gate use costs, set the permissions node ancientgates.econbypass (Ops have this permission by default).
To Do List
- Add BungeeCord support, allowing server-server teleportation.
