EnderPads are personal teleporters. They can be used for PvP raids, mining trips, creative minigames, lobby teleportation, and so much more.
Making one is simple:
Place a block of obsidian (configurable) where the center of your pad should be, then place a solid block on each cardinal (Northern, Eastern, Southern, and Western) side of the obsidian.
Whichever four blocks you chose to place become that EnderPads "link combo". Placing a pressure plate on top of the obsidian will complete the EnderPad, strike lightning and display your pad usage. Any EnderPads constructed with the same four blocks ("link combo") instantly become linked and allow long distance, inter-dimensional travel. If there are more than two linked EnderPads, teleportation between them will become random.
In a PvP setting, it should be obvious to note the importance of keeping your EnderPads hidden, as anyone could build a connecting EnderPad to your own. If "SkipBlockPads" is set to "true" in your configuration, placing a block above the pressure plate will prevent teleporting from and to the EnderPad. If "false", EnderPads could potentially be set up as traps. Espionage and combo stealing will become a regular part of your PvP experience. It's really fun.
Above: Two linked EnderPads. The exact order of the blocks is not important, as long as they have the same blocks.
1.) Stop your server.
2.) Drag and drop the EnderPads.jar file into your plugin directory.
3.) Start your server.
4.) Configure the plugin to your liking using the generated configurations.
5.) Run the command '/enderpads reload' from the console or as a player with appropriate permission.
6.) Go build some portals!

More information will provided as I finish documenting the API.
