Translocators are devices used to teleport long distances within Vintage Story.
Obtaining
Static translocators cannot be crafted; they can be found only through exploring. They cannot be destroyed or relocated. Other types of teleporters can be crafted.
Finding
Broken static translocators generate in ruins , almost always underground.
While some translocators can only be reached by going deep underground, many translocator rooms are near enough to the surface that you don't need high-tier gear to risk searching. Watch for any unnatural blocks, such as stone bricks or aged wood, which indicate the presence of a manmade structure that might contain a translocator or other valuables.
It's not possible in singleplayer to find an unbroken static translocator.
Repairing
Broken static translocators are useless until repaired.
"Ruined static translocators" cannot be repaired; they're simply decorative.
Broken translocators can be repaired using 2 metal parts and 3 temporal gears .
Note: If your character's class is Clockmaker , you will only need 2 metal parts and 2 temporal gears to repair the broken translocator.
Repair process:
- Holding 2 Metal parts in the active hand, rightclick on the broken static translocator. The platform glass returns to its proper place. Must hold 2: Rightclicking with only 1 metal part accomplishes nothing. Must start with metal: Rightclicking with a temporal gear before the Metal parts accomplishes nothing.
- Holding a temporal gear, rightclick on the broken static translocator. A blue-green gear appears under the platform glass.
- Rightclick with a second temporal gear. A blue-green gear appears on top of the frame.
- Rightclick with a third temporal gear. A blue-green gear appears in the control box to the left.
In the images below, the interact tooltips display what the next step is. To toggle the interact tooltips, press Ctrl+B.
Unrepaired | Metal parts applied | 1 temporal gear | 2 temporal gears | 3 temporal gears |
---|---|---|---|---|
Usage
A repaired translocator will find a spot a few thousand of blocks away from itself, where a paired translocator will be generated, allowing the player to easily move between the two.
The newly-linked translocator will be at least 400 blocks away, but no further than 8000 blocks.[1]
Occasionally, the process of pairing with another translocator goes awry; make a backup of your world before trying a newly-repaired translocator.
To use a translocator, stand onto the platform until the sound effects complete. If you step off the platform within a few seconds, the transportation will be cancelled.
Recommended to take with you through a new translocator:
- a light source, preferably a waterproof one
- a pickaxe with decent durability, as there might not be a quick or safe route to the surface
- ladders or rope ladders
- a stack of dirt or other building material, as you might need to block passageways to avoid being swarmed by monsters
- food
