what if the creator could link together only certain rifts together? For instance, I have 4 areas of a map. I want there to be portals in each area link it to the next. for instance, area 1 has portal 1, which is connected to portal 2, in area 2. Also in area 2 is portal 3, which is hooked up to portal 4 in area 3. Also in area 3 is portal 5 which is hooked up into portal 6, in area 4.
What are your thoughts about this idea?

Yes it's a very good idea.

With types of microrifts like this, moving creeper through them can also be established. That is one thing I would like. But being able to determine which goes where would be a problem...

I quite fail to realize the point of this other than moving creeper, since everything moves to nearest rifts...
And if that's the only point, I think it's not worth it.

currently, the M-Rifts all network with each other this would force you to take them over in a certain order |

It seems however, that fields do not take with them packets or weapons... But I still think this isn't really necessary as chambers being (almost) sealed off can be moved around the map as the maker thinks suitable. I also imagine the potential misunderstanding for the eventual players would be a big down vote. |

I wonder if you could abuse beacons to require you to place a beacon to access a micro-rift (sealed off by dig-able terrain, as well as fields protecting it from destruction by creeper)
However, if you were to upgrade beacon range, that would screw with it, so I then want the option to disable certain upgrades in custom maps, and possible set their initial level.

You could surround the rifts with creeper in pin fields, and then use certain teleport positions for AC that wipe it out if you have got to the correct point in the map (hm. this idea doesn't even sound *too* bad; it could actually work)

I've actually used this technique to make an "invisible" row of ground |
