Stickman portals to other saves?

    Hello back peps! Today I am making an map called "Meanwhile in Cape Town..." (currently only in "manual" Beta prerelease) and the objective was to pass through an gas station caught in fire to reach the map's other side, where the player automatically goes to the save no 1729532 ("Another fireworks accident!") I made, which shows an diesel tank burning and making the fireworks, resulting in an catastrophe hot rain. Some amber from the exploding fireworks was what felt in the ashes of what seemed like it was another convenience store (if you use GreenFireDragon's mod the "rust" (dust of the ruin, or maybe ashes) would be actually the portal to the save 1729532) in the gas station before burning out. However I wish that vanilla people (i.e. people that don't use GreenFireDragon's "elementary mod"; I wish to learn Lua to make gasous nitrogen & hydrogen, pure carbon, methane (and other hydrocarbonets) etc etc.) have an fairly easy way to teleport to the burning firework depot save. I urgently need help! Without the teleport, only unfinished prereleases (where you go through signs)!

    PS - I noticed also TPT's water is almost stationary, sometimes even with equalisation, and no waves or underwater currents occur without surface irregularity or winds (respectively)!

    I'm afraid there's no way to do this, saves can't load other saves on their own. Your best bet is to do what you're doing now, and have users use signs to navigate the game,

    Right now TPT doesn't support this (it will probably never be supported), so as @FeynmanLogomaker said, just use signs. btw, I see you also used my tree seed :D

    Yep! Oh and using signs the person can cheat by clicking it BEFORE reaching the other side but, btw, yeah I used your tree seed (and turned soil to dust for compatibility reasons XD) because its wood and plants generated is the vanilla ones. :)

    This way it'll never escape the Beta! Maybe I'll have to abandon it... was a great fictional concept (though the Denmark firework accident was based in an real history!!!!!!!!) so yeah... :(

    Surely people can just cheat anyway by deleting the stickman and recreating it on the other side?

    You think people would really do that? Just go on to the Internet and tell lies like that?

    Well it IS awesome, as it's still in Beta in case you wish to test it, but nothing else really. :P

    THIS idea is AWESOME and should be implemented no matter hard coding!!!!!
