I always have a portal with no name "" in my main base.
I have two use cases for this:
– when I'm exploring a new a area, I always have materials for one portal when me. Whenever I want to go fast to my home base (e.g. full inventory, no rested buff, repair needed, night), I just set it one up with "" and go home. Once I'm back, I tear it off.
– once I want to place a new portal permanently, I place it with "", go through it to my base, place there a new portal with a appropriate name, go back through "" and remane the portal identical
Currently I have for every portal somewhere else a matching named portal at my base. But maybe I'll stop this soon and switch names of portals depending on where I'm frequently going.
How do you do this?
How else do you organize your portals?
