Hem. With the newest Bukkit versions World Portal does have some little problems like this. It's caused by bukkit itself and I can't fix it yet. For example, the looking direction is caused by the core of Bukkit itself.
About the file loading problem. I could fix this soon.

Posted Nov 7, 2012Can you please take out the space in the plugin's name in the plugin list so that it can be loaded with a plugin manager plugin? I have to restart my server to unload or load this plugin because it has a space in the name.

Okay, the portal direction makes sense. It was hard to figure because I was assigning multiple portals to the spawn, and I often wasn't at said spawn so knowing orientation was a bit difficult.
As for loading and reloading, I tried every possible manner in saving it. But saving the file from outside the server makes it get wiped over upon server start up, and changing it while the server is running, and then running the save command just replaces the fixes with the previous set.
Oh, also, whenever I change the spawn point of one of the other worlds for fine tuning multi-world support, it clears out the previous set as well :/

Thank you.
About the files, if you use the reload command World Portal should load the newly edited files without saving the old portals again, so it should be possible to edit the portals. If you want to re-load the files, make sure you save them first, and then execute the reload command. Or do you have any other problems with this?
When you create a portal the plugin asks you to fill in a number for the looking direction, 0 = west, 90 = north, 180 = east and 270 = west, it's in decreese. In the world portal files, there are coordinates available, the degrees should be the last number of the coordinates (Not sure I haven't checked it, sorry)

Posted Nov 5, 2012I'll say that this is a very nice plugin. It does exactly what I was hoping for it to do. Running 1.4.2. It's lightweight, incredibly easy to use, versatile. It's simply everything I could ask for.
It would be nice if the reload and save functions didn't wipe the previous portal sets, or that the portals were loaded from a .txt file at startup, because it looks like information is just written to Ram and then put in the list just for visual ascetics. If you try to edit the list file, even while the server is off, the whole system become obsolete and reloading and saving inside the console/server will clear out the file.
I like editing my mods via notepad, and was hoping to edit the direction with it, because it's not really clear on how that even is determine. That why I started running into most of my issues here.
So my suggestion, either find a way to load from the file, even after the files been edited, or at least, explain how the direction works.
Looking forward to updates on this plugin.
And yes, I know I'm long winded.

Is your servers RAM usage above 80%? That may cause the problem that the chunk won't load to prevent 'out of memory' crashes. Also, the strange part is, that World Portal forces that chunk to load when a player teleports, but the problem might be the thing about RAM above.

Yeah. I set it up to teleport to the coords. It seems that when we teleport, the chunks don't load all the way, so we fall a little. Then when they load we are in the ground. Thats what im seeing when I try it anyway.

Huh strange. You mean players are teleported into the ground or something? And you have setup the coordinates using X, Y and Z?

It's a problem inside bukkit itself. YOu've to know it only happends when you teleport thorugh a pressureplate (the other objects work fine) and when you're in creative mode, so in survival mode it should be fine! I'm hardly trying to fix the problem but I didn't find a solution yet, I hope bukkit itself will patch this problem.

Posted Oct 19, 2012After warp, players spawn in the ground rather than on top, then die. The coords are set properly.

Posted Oct 19, 2012This is really getting on my nerves.
The teleport is offsetting the place over such a long distance.
I looked in the .list file and all of it is correct, it's just not working.
Anyone help?

Really!? On my server they always work. Could you check if you see any errors in the console. And do you know if it's always after a certain time? ALso, it would be great if you could send me your plugin list.
