This could solve the desire to have movement between different heights.
Maybe there should be teleport pads

Tons of possibilities with teleports
It would create a lot of interesting situations and map designs with teleports. It reminds me of Brawl Stars and many other, also very old, games with teleport pads. People would get very creative with them, and with big maps it'd basically allow fast traveling. I fully support the idea!
From the top of my sleepy head I can't think of many applications for Lockdown itself
- Teleport pads purely for aesthetics: designers could create maps separated into a number of distant islands traversable only through the pads (very easy to camp though)
- Teleport pads for linear maps: all Lockdown maps are "circular" to account for lack of fast transportation for Guardians and Recons. Teleport pads unlockable with point captures could open a new field for linear maps like 5CP in Team Fortress 2
- Teleport pads for non-lockdown maps: a noticeable minority of people are designing anything but LD maps in the Crucible Editor - DeathRun, Racing, Co-op puzzle-solving are the most recent ideas pitched & started. This is where such a tool could really shine lol
