There are a lot of teleport systems in Second Life, from freebies all the way up to expensive server based solutions for commercial operations. Some are easy to set up, and adjust or add too, others almost impossible without a degree in astral navigation.
Recently there have appeared a number of systems all having ease of set up as their main claim to your linden. Thomas Conover has added such a system to his extensive range of excellent SL gadgets.
Its is called the HPC system, and if you can rez and rename objects in SL you can use this it really is that simple.
It consists of a copyable 2 prim teleport pad which you rez where you want your destinations. Rename each pads object name to something easy to remember (home, garden, skybox etc) and err thats it. You have a basic fully functional teleport network. No juggling vectors, editing notecards or anything else. It just works.
If you decide you want your Home telepad somewhere else just move it. It updates itself.
Of course things CAN get more interesting. If you click and hold your mouse for a few seconds on a pad you get an admin menu, where you can make individual pads group access, or access list (each pad can get its own list) even one way or invisible. Need more than one telepad with the same access list or config ? No problem - edit as needed and take a copy back to inventory to rez where required.
You can also change the teleport effect a user experiences - 2 are built in, a simple light beam or a cool hovering ufo which sticks a round for a few seconds when you land! You can also copy/mod your own custom effects.
Theres more - each pad can scan for people and record how often it is used. A plugin module included in the package rezzes a 3D 'holographic' real time display of your network so you can see at a glance your layout, whos around it and what each pads settings are.
One thing it currently isnt usable for is 'pay to teleport' requirements, howeevr as the whole system can be updated using a special update drone without interefering with your existing pads I am sure Thomas would consider adding this if asked.
Overall I have never before used such an easy, comprehensive teleport system. It can cover a whole sim, and I have had it running all the way from ground level to over 700M. It also seems to be able to move though (around?) parcel banlines.
Highly recommended.
