I am just looking for simple instructions on how to build my transporter base.

Can anyone help?

You mean like a Telepad?

If you're referring to the Telepads used to teleport your toons to the zone of your choice, they are crafted off the Tier 1 workbench and then placed from your "Personal Items" when editing.

You will also need the exploration badges for each zone you wish to assign a telepad to, and each telepad will contain only 2 zone "Beacons" at a time.

badge-hunter.com is a good source for finding the exploration badges, but make sure you are in SG MMode when you go get them, or your sg will not get credit.

Good question, I've been wondering for some time now how to build a telepad. I build the Raid Teleporter or whatever by accident, but it didn't help at all.

So 2 questions to the helpful people that posted earlier:
1) What in the hell is the raid teleporter and what does it do?
2) So all I need to do to get a REAL teleporter that takes my SG members places, is build a workbench? Do you make it out of salvage, or... can somebody elaborate more on exactly what the process is for crafting such an item?

1) It's a leftover from the old base raiding system. If they ever do something similar in the future, it may or may not use the same items.

2) See the wiki for a variety of answers. You go into Edit Base and place a Basic Worktable or Basic Forge in an appropriate room in your base; this requires 50k Prestige to place and requires 20 Energy, 10 Control to run. You can get these back when you're done crafting by deleting the table if you're on a tight budget. Exiting edit mode, and using the worktable, you build a Basic Telepad item using salvage; several recipe choices are available. You then exit the table and go into place item mode, and drop the pad in an appropriate room. After that, you need to exit that mode, go into edit base mode again, and place at least one beacon linked to the pad. Assuming you've got sufficient power and control to run the pad and beacons, you can then go places.

Okay, thanks for the help, one final question:
Now that I've got a teleporter up, it says I need a destination beacon... How do I obtain one? Is that also something that's crafted, or... what do I do?
Instructions on how to get one would be greatly appreciated.

See my post above. The Beacons are acquired by entering SG Mode and travelling to different badge locations in each zone.

Badge-hunter.com will give you the badges locations and links to maps of the zones.

to get your location ingame, type /loc

this will give you the number coordinates of your current position ingame.

Face one of the 4 directions and scoot left or right, and hit /loc again...this will help you learn how the numbers change to get where you need to be. On of the numbers is your height.

A good location bind is:

/bind L loc

going to give it a try this weekend. Will let you know how it works out... After 5 years of game play... I decided to get my own base and build it from scratch. So far, I am doing good. Nice invention tables, salvage storage, Medical center, inspir storage. I figure that I am getting tired of giving prestige to someone else.

Funny how the AE areas are empty now that the Nerf BAT hit!.
