I am part of a Stargate group and we always have to make our gates face east to have the teleporting work right.
I want to know if there is anyway to change that?

No, but it's main reason why almost half the shop owners have the entrance to their shop on the west side: so people teleporting in will look into their shop when they rez, and not at the competition across the street. Some of them did this by accident, of course, just like the other half of the shopkeepers, who didn't know or ignored this behaviour and placed their entrance at another side.

All TPs are like that - there's no way to specify which direction you want to be facing when you get to the destination. It's just a location without a direction.

Ok i just double-checked.
Greenlife lets you do things like change the camera location after a teleport, rotate avatar according to camera left/right rotation on a doubleclick teleport and other things. So i am probably incorrect. I am never right when it comes to tech stuff anyways. HAHAHAHA _____________________

For a stargate, I suppose you could put the stargate on a small parcel with the landing point behind the stargate, so when they walk forwards from the LP they'll be walking out through the gate. _____________________

If you give people a landmark that's offset by a few meters from your landing point, then when they teleport to the landmark they will be at the landing point facing towards the landmark.. Oooo.. Good trick! Never knew that one.. _____________________
