Suggestion: Possible to scale warp cooldown with distance covered?

[StygianEmperor]

(I don't have a Twitch Account for CurseForge - the last two got hacked so I gave up years ago - so apologies if this isn't the right place for suggestions.)

I feel like the warping mechanic can be either too soft or too punishing depending on how far a player actually needs to travel, since it's always a static number (at least based on the warp-type used). Would it be possible to have the teleportation measure the distance in blocks between the player's current point and destination and scale the cooldown based on that number?

Expanding on that (though this gets progressively more complex to implement, I assume):

• Maybe a configurable "minimum cooldown" so no matter how near a player's destination, it will cooldown for a set time (to prevent abusing a short-distance multiplier; e.g., going from one end of a base to another repeatedly)?
• A display that, prior to warping, tells the player how long their cooldown will be if they decide to use a given warp?

That being said, I like a lot about this mod and pretty much all the others you've made/updated to 1.16.4 (and side note: I appreciate your willingness to engage and explain things in comments - it's refreshing).

This is totally the right place to give suggestions. Thank you for kind words😄

I think it would be possible to create a system like that.

I think that it should work as the following.

• Server config value to choose between the new and old system. Such that people that liked the old system is not pushed away.
• Server config value for min and max cooldown value.
• Teleporting between dimensions will always have the max cooldown.
• Teleporting between points in the same dimension should use the scaling system and give a cooldown between min and max.
• Displaying the cooldown that will be enforced on the radial menu before commenting to a warp as you said.

I will start working on this when I find time for it 😃

Oh for sure; there should be a config value to choose which system to use - I definitely don't want to remove the valid option you've already made.

And no rush! Thanks for considering!
