Do you hate portal delays and the effect when going through portals? Then this is the plugin for you.
PortalButtons adds a feature to portals where a button placed on a lit portal frame automatically teleports you through. It scans the other side of the portal for a safe position to place you - on the ground, centered if possible, and not touching any liquids. This makes it a lot quicker to get to the other side.
The mod works either on the client or server side. Client side is for singleplayer only, Server side works for all connected players.
Quick Q&A:
Q: Can't I just set the playersNetherPortalDefaultDelay gamerule?
A: This plugin is cooler. Also I really hate portals.
Q: What if the button teleports me facing the wrong side?
A: Put a wall on the side you don't want to face. Alternatively, wood and stone buttons will check a different portal face first, so you can switch the button type to force it to look at the other side first.
Q: My button isn't working
A: It will only teleport you if it can find a safe spot on the other side. It scans the bounding box around the entire frame (obsidian included - so 1 block steps down are ok) on each side of the portal, looking for a spot on the ground to teleport you.
Q: My button only works if I press it twice
A: There's a bug on chunk borders where it can't scan the blocks on the other side. It's related to the check that searches for a safe collision to teleport you to. Not sure how to fix it but I put in a workaround that temporarily loads the chunks on the other side (with standard portal tickets) to fix it the 2nd time around.
