Portals

Portals teleport a player that enters the specified region to an exact location, by a certain offset amount or to a random location inside a region.

The position and direction attributes of a portal are relative to the players location and where they are looking. Prefix these values with an at symbol @ to specify absolute values. Portals can be restricted to certain teams by defining their filter attribute.

Portals respond to any player move event, this allows almost instant teleportation as soon as the player matches the portals filter.

TIP: Copy the yaw and pitch from the F3 screen in minecraft (the Facing: Direction (Axis) (Yaw/Pitch) line).
