idea to make coordinating teleport expeditions easier and thus more likely to happen
add the ability for the teleport console to make another perm portal, this one whose entrance is in some public place on the station and exit is at specified XYZ coordinates. maybe the entrance would be at a demarcated spot in the courtroom, or right outside the research wing, or in crew quarters/jazz lounge/some poorly monitored but easy to get to place
useful scientists can use it to set up a place for crew to go on a field trip to ice planet/biodome/whatever without having to get access into research and crowding the tiny telelab, making it easier to manage when the AI/HoP isn't around to help. could also be used to set up a bypass-- if the airbridge is locked down or the southern half of the station blown up, open up the public portal to link to the escape arm
traitor scientists/AIs can set it to link to deep space/the crusher and lure folks in with promises of riches and adventure. or other traitors could use it to more conveniently bring horrible monsters back from the expeditions onto the station
