		+	[[Minecraft]] has objects called "portals", though these are really [[teleporter]]s. The distinction is that you can go straight through a portal to get to its destination (it follows that portals are bidirectional), while if you walk straight through a Minecraft portal you stay in the same area of space, so you must wait in it for a few seconds to actually arrive at your destination.
