Idea Teleporter Update

Updating the teleporters a bit to make it more up-to-date.


Instead of manually breaking the wool beneath the pressure plate players are now required to simply hit the central wool 5 times to break the teleporter. Each directed hit to the teleporter (exception of ninja's dust) takes away 2 health points from its 10 total health.

(Using blue team as the default)

Brackets correspond to the Engineer's current team.

Teleporter's health bar will only appear when it has taken damage - any other time it will not be visible. This will continue to allow Engineers to set up hidden teleporters.
Engineer's can repair the teleporters by right clicking the teleporter with the pickaxe, repairing it by 2 health points every half second.
Inactive teleporters emit red particles instead of green particles.

Spoiler: Teleport Messages

Players attempting to use a teleporter get these messages in certain scenarios:

Actionbar titles*
Occurs when player attempts to use an inactive teleporter -

Occurs when player is attempting to use active teleporter -

Occurs when teleporter is destroyed while a player is attempted to teleport -

Brackets correspond to Engineer's current team.

- The wait time to teleport remains the same.
- Flag carriers can still use teleporter.
- When destroyed the teleporter emits the same particles as a destroyed turret
- "This is not your team's teleporter!" messages still appear.

Pros - Quicker gameplay, improved chances of taking over enemy setup with many players, more noob-friendly, improved aesthetic
Cons - Nostalgic factor?

 

i'm fine with that. i just tried avoiding changing how the teleporters currently work apart from how to destroy them.
