Add portal between gordon stacy and hospital in bricks

[WindDemon21]

Has been annoying for a while, the train and sg portal are at the far north side of the zone, so any time you have to go to the south end to talk to gordon, who takes forever to give you his cell, or get those badges down there, or give the goo to sheridan, or if you want to get to that entry part near creys. It would make sense for the sg base portal to be down there instead, but if for some reason that doesn't want to be done there is an open portal slot that could be put down there too (though base portal being down there near the hospital makes the most sense since the train is already up in the north end.

The locations of the SG portals were already changed once by the Homecoming team; I want to say that the SG portal in Brickstown used to be near Steven Sheridan, but I could be misremembering.

 

There are a few portal locations that I think are in more convenient spots, a few that I think are in less convenient spots, and a few I have no opinion either way. I agree that having so many of the Paragon City SG portals near train stations seems a little like overkill to me.

That might have been (though that's still the better option), why I mentioned putting at least the portal there then if the base one isn't touched.

 

Maybe even out an pro pop-out down there.

If I remember correctly, the portal has always been in roughly the same area, but the SG exit used to be next to the hospital.

Yeah, most of the SG-base-related travel changes were pretty nice and having you come out in every zone at the portal location makes sense but there are a few zones where that change made things more clunky:

• Getting to the eastern end of Eden for the badges there used to be super fast because the Founders' Falls teleporter dumped you out right by the Eden gate. Now it dumps you in the plaza, and the Eden teleporter puts you by Woodsman so either way you've got to hoof it across an entire zone to get to your destination. I brought up that it didn't make much sense to put the SG portal in its current location in Eden because you can already get to that exact location with a quick LFG teleport, but apparently using LFG as fast travel "isn't the intention" so here we are.
• I used to level new alts in the Brickstown AE because it was out of the way and the base teleporter used to drop you relatively close to the AE building there (and was closer to the middle of the zone instead of a corner like it is now).
