I just spammed an idea at the crew-channel, which I got a few positive reactions on.
This could be a full replacement of the teleportcommand and still let players be able to get where they want. The /taxi-command will be changed and no longer work with a /locations-list. Instead, it will take (partial) street- and propertynames. For example: /taxi Prickle Pine or /taxi Caligula. A partial streetname will work too, like /taxi Fort (to Fort Carson).
If a partial name has multiple results, such as /taxi Airport, you could get a menu like this:
There are 3 results for "Airport". Use /taxi [id] to taxi to this location:
0) Cancel
1) Las Venturas Airport
2) Los Santos Airport
3) San Fierro Airport
This means we have to have coördinates for EVERY streetname. Luckily this is something we can all help Peter with, by /save-ing on a good location in that street. The taxi-bussiness will get a huge boast from this, and it could very well work with seperated cities: every city could have it's own taxi bussiness.
Players could tell each other where they currently are (because it automatically shows in the lower right corner of your screen) and use the taxi to find each other.
