Teleport Animation

Version 1.1.5 — Opción 1: Smooth Slide Animation for Nearby Waystones

What's New

• Nearby Waystone Slide Animation (Opción 1): When teleporting to a waystone within render distance, the camera now smoothly slides horizontally from origin to destination in a single continuous motion.
  • Phase 1 (Ascenso): Camera rises vertically above the player.
  • Phase 2 (Teleport/Slide): Camera slides smoothly across the landscape, interpolating XZ position while maintaining altitude.
  • Phase 3 (Descenso): Camera descends vertically into the destination waystone.
• Optimized for Visibility: No fade-to-black overlay — both waystones remain visible throughout the transition for maximum immersion.

How It Works

• Automatic Detection: Triggers when destination waystone is within render distance (typically 8 chunks).
• Smooth Interpolation: Camera position is eased between origin and destination using smooth step function.
• Consistent Altitude: Camera maintains top-down viewing angle (pitch 90°) throughout the slide for clear sightlines.

Technical Details

• New slideFrame() method handles XZ interpolation for nearby teleports.
• getCameraFrame() now routes to slideFrame() when travelToNearbyWaystone is true.
• Travel duration automatically reduced to 12-20 ticks for quick, snappy transitions.
• No blackout fade means nearby teleports feel immediate and responsive while long-distance teleports retain cinematic drama.
