Dodo goes in, Dodo comes out

A fully-functional portal gun, in ark! Tek tier is required to craft, runs on potatos for power.

Portals can be placed on any unobstructed, solid, deep surfaces like flat ground, cave walls, or the included portal surface structures. Any creature or projectile of suitable size can pass through a portal in either direction, preserving velocity. Portal graphics quality can be configured by each player using the settings menu on the portal gun, including a low-performance mode that disables vision through portals.

This mod is understandably not balanced for PvP, although it has some anti-griefing measures for PvE servers, preventing teleporting dinos or players of other tribes unless they intentionally enter a portal.

Some bugs with lighting exist, shadow level may change when near a portal. This seems to be an unfixable bug with the engine version ark uses.

This mod is open-source for reference purposes. Contents may not be repackaged in another mod as is, but can be used as a guide for developing mods with similar functionality. Current build sourcecode: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fOwiVKeRmr2CETwuOWWDhWUH6R3Pze9V/view?usp=sharing
