For my current FM, I need to create a portal that teleports you elsewhere when you walk through it. I know how to make one that would teleport you if you frob it, but since I require the player to carry an unconscious body through the portal, I need it to work by walking through it.
How would I best do this?

In Trail of Blood, there was a portal that you have to jump into. Might be worth checking out.

Boundstrigger (TrigOBBPlayer)-->cd to teleport trap-->cd to starting point

TeleportTrap is the easiest but the least smooth. As the camera will be set to the facing of the trap object you feel a strong break.
To seamlessly move the player you can either use (custom)Stims or what I would suggest the telliamed's (
http://dromed.whoopdedo.org/tnhscript/trapmoverelative) TrapMoveRelative scipt.
For my mission I created a real portal trap setup (only copy&paste!) which is based on Telliameds scipt but also enables the teleportation of uhmm... everything else that passes it. Even a body on it's own^^
I wrote down a basic version down here (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=138414).
Meanwhile it's improved further more fail safe and even patrolling/alerted guards can use it.
If you are interested in it I pass the new version on. As said -what was important for me - it's heavenly based on scripts and works with copy and paste and no linking work at all!

Wow, that looks all very complicated. I'm not at the point where I understand such complex scripts yet :D
But it looks interesting though, if you have updated it posting the new version might certainly be useful for Dromeders :)

I tried that and even compared it to how it is done in Trail of Blood. But nothing happens for some reason!
I built a Maw Portal effect surrounded by brushes. I made a Boundstrigger, added the "TrigOBBPlayer" script, made the Boundstrigger's size exactly the same as the size of the portal effect, and placed it in the middle.
I linked it with ControlDevice to the TeleportTrap.
I linked the TeleportTrap with ControlDevice to the StartingPoint.
And yet, when I walk into the portal, nothing happens.
EDIT: Okay, that was stupid of me. I wrote Trigg instead of Trig in the script name. Now it works!

in the endgame of the spear of destiny the portal does exactly what you want, might want to check that one ..;)
