What's New in XPortal Networks Tribes Pins

XPortal Networks Tribes Pins builds upon the solid foundation of the original XPortal mod by SpikeHimself, expanding it into a dedicated networking framework with extensive multiplayer features and numerous bug fixes:

• Portal Networks: Group portals into distinct networks:
• Global / Public Network: Accessible to all players on the server.
• Player Networks & Private Portals: Portals tied to individual players. Toggle the Private setting so unauthorized players cannot view or teleport through your personal portals.
• Custom Named Networks: Define up to 15 server-wide custom networks (such as Trade Hub, Clan Base, Mining Outposts, or Admin Only) via configuration, complete with real-time hot-reloading.
• Server Admin & Permission Controls: Configurable permissions allowing server admins to manage networks and prevent non-owners from deconstructing portals.
• Portal Pins on Your Map: Every portal you are allowed to use is pinned on your own map - the feature the XPortal Shared Map Pins companion mod inspired, built in as this mod's own re-implementation (an inspiration only - no code from that project is used here). Other players' private portals and restricted networks stay hidden.
• Bug Fixes & Modernization:
• Upgraded for the latest Valheim versions and .NET Framework 4.8.
• Resolved controller UI legend and navigation issues.
• Fixed dedicated server admin destruction and permission edge-cases.
• Enhanced ZDO network synchronization and reconnection reliability.

Features

🌐 Destination Selection Menu

When interacting with a portal, a clean UI opens allowing you to select your target destination from a dropdown menu. The list displays:

• The destination portal name
• Distance to the destination (in meters)
• Portal light color indicator (when paired with mods like Advanced Portals or Stone Portal)

🔒 Public, Private & Custom Networks

Organize your world’s transportation:

• Global Network: The shared network open to everyone.
• Personal Network: Portals automatically grouped under your character.
• Private Portals: Mark sensitive portals as private so other players cannot use or retarget them.
• Custom Named Networks: Admin-defined portal networks (up to 15) that live in this mod's own config file, so they can be added, renamed or restricted on the fly - in-game with tools like ConfigurationManager, or by editing the [Portal Network <n>] sections by hand. Each network carries a Permitted list of the player ids allowed to use it, which is how a portal network is restricted to a specific Tribe or faction on a multiplayer server.

⭐ Default Portal Destination

You can set a portal as your Default Portal. Newly constructed portals will immediately link to your default portal automatically, saving you time when setting up forward operating bases.

🏷️ Uncapped Portal Name Length

XPortal Networks Tribes Pins removes the vanilla character limit on portal tags, allowing you to give your portals descriptive and memorable names.

🗺️ Portal Pins on Your Map

Every portal you are allowed to use is pinned on your own map automatically - this is the feature the standalone XPortal Shared Map Pins mod by buldosik inspired, built right in as this mod's own re-implementation. buldosik's mod is credited as an inspiration only: no code from that project is used here.

• Portals on the Global network, on tribe networks you are a member of, and your own private portals are pinned.
• Other players' private portals and restricted networks are never pinned, so the map cannot reveal portals you have no access to.
• The pins are local map data: nothing is written to the world, nothing is sent to other players, and vanilla player pins are untouched.
• Pins follow renamed, moved and destroyed portals, and come back if you delete one on the map.
• Disable them with Show Portal Map Pins, or use Show Network In Pin Name to prefix each pin with its network (for example [Trade Hub] North Base).
