The VIP Teleporter component allows creators to set up teleporters that checks if a player is VIP.
The component uses a data table to make connecting teleporters quick and simple.
A player is considered VIP if they are on a specific team.
This component works in conjunction with the VIP Team Selection component. See more info here: https://learn.coregames.com/vip-team-selection/
Setup
To create your own teleporters, there is a VIP Teleporter template that can be used.
To have a specific rotation for the player when they are teleported, you can rotate the root object. If the rotation is 0, 0, 0, then it will maintain the player’s rotation.
The teleporters are connected using a data table. See below for more information on how to connect teleporters.
How to use

The template contains 4 custom properties on the root of the template.

Connecting Teleporters
Connecting teleporters is very easy.
In Project Content find the VIP Teleporters data table and open it. You will see 5 columns: From, To, TwoWay, VIP, and VIPTeams.
From
is the object reference to the teleporter that will initiate the teleportation.To
is the object reference to the target location for the player.TwoWay
is a boolean indicating if the teleport connection works both ways.VIP
is a boolean indicating if it should teleport only VIPs or only non-VIPS.VIPTeams

Teleporters can be chained easily. For example, from A to B, B to C, and so on.
Teleporters can have multiple connections but only the first valid one will be selected.
