Better Portal
Better Portal is a mod that allows you to change the destination of portals to any tag. I know that there are already mods with the same functionality, but I created this mod because I did not want to install Jotunn.

Better Portal - Valheim Mod
Better Portal lets you change a Valheim portal's destination to any tag. It is a minimal alternative for players who do not want to install Jotunn. If Jotunn is already installed, this mod has no advantage over similar portal mods.
IMPORTANT
This mod is developed by an individual and is not associated with the game's developer. Do not contact the game developer about this mod.
Features
For released documentation, see docs/user-guide.md.
When interacting with a portal, hold the configured modifier key to set the destination tag. Portals do not have to be connected to each other, and teleportation can be one-way.
TIP: Pressing the Insert key while entering the destination tag autocompletes from existing portal tags. Pressing the Up Arrow or Down Arrow key rotates existing tags.
NOTE: If multiple portals have the specified destination tag, the connection target is selected randomly.

Configurations
Configuration Manager is recommended.
Use CONFIG.md for every configuration entry and default value. Use docs/user-guide.md for workflow notes.
