Simple Portals Teleporter unable to link more than 2 Portal sets.
Hello @AndreAquila
I am attempting to setup some portals but when I attempt to link a 3rd set either the 3rd set breaks or another set breaks.
Initially I had two portals set; one that leads from my base in the desert to 0,0 and one the goes from the ground to the building I made in the sky above 0,0.
When trying to link a 3rd set of portals from my grassland base to 0,0 the portal set will function one time and then break. I have had this happen a number of times now.
However, now the Grasslands Base to 0,0 portal set is functioning but my portal set from my Desert Base to 0,0 has now.

NVM, one just broke after going through them all...
Fresh debug incase it is of any use.

Hey Yamza... hmmm, thanks for the detailed report!! 👍 Im looking into it now
seems like sometimes they "connect" but they doesnt teleport! 😦 im trying to fix it
Sounds good. If there's anything else I can help with just let me know. 🙂
Thanks ! I just uploaded a new version that the portals will show a status. When you can test, let know what status shows when this bug happens. I couldn't reproduce it anymore, don't know if repacking solved it...
Checking it out now.
Looks like I did break it by being naughty and not waiting like it said

Key Details for SMMDebug-2025-04-02-18-37-48.zip triggered by @YamzaI went through them each a few times within the span of a minute and now none work.
Maybe i should try this without mods incase of a conflict.
Oh sorry, you asked for what the status shows. When I step on one that is "broken" it will show the "wait" indicator but it doesnt teleport me.
hmm, it just shows wait?
is it dedicated server?
I wonder if perhaps distance is a factor as well since my portals are quite far apart
nah single player
If i step on one that is broken it will show the wait indicator for 5 seconds or whatever. but it wont teleport me even if i wait a bit.

those are the portal link lines
hmm, i think it is not finding the other one...
I should change it to save the location instead the other portal... maybe that way it will not "loose" each other.
Testing with small distance it works, right?
the small distance one doesnt seem to have broken ever
good... let me try a new thing...
Now i changed all to location vectors... uploading... let me know and sorry about that errors
If that version solves it, you helped me to learn a big thing about how unreal engine is working in the current version of the game.
If it shows up in the next 5 minutes or so i'll check it, otherwise ill have to check in a few hours.
No hurry, thanks for all testing 🙂
Thanks for the mod and working with me to fix it. 🙂
The longer distance one did break still after a few uses. getting debug.

Tbf the mod still serves the purpose I need it for even if it breaks like this. But I assume you don't intend for it to break in the first place. 😂
hopefully will work 100% !!! 🙂
I made a new profile in SMM with just the portal mod for testing.
