What's its actual name?
How do I use it, example please.
Some other third thing I'll think of later?

Teleport player to another game. It is only used in LocalScripts, and that way can teleport the correct player without specifically stating through the lua code.

Example:

game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(3375854) -- Teleport to my game

game:GetService("TeleportService"):TeleportToSpawnByName(3375854, "SpawnNameHere") -- Teleport to my game, but to a specified spawn

@SurfingPikachuu - Only if they find a way to access client-side coding while in the server.

And it prompts you whether or not you want to teleport

You do understand that you need a script to directly prompt the teleportation, right?

If Lua code does not trigger the prompting, the player cannot teleport. So if the player is online on an 'obby,' they have no way of teleporting.

Ohh, ok:P

Yeah, that could be a problem. Of course, not many people even name their spawns. And someone could just scramble the name of the spawns. Doubt many people who make those obbies would have any clue how to do that though.

@Bambam152 - It's ran on localscripts only. Therefore it's client-side. So it just teleports the client.

@ 2)

Teleport service doesn't allow you to include any position as an argument

That's most likely completely unrelated.

Yes, but so is Teleport, right? I thought they were releasing TeleportService sometime next week.

I can see people finding some sort of way to manipulate it to let them get a copy of their favorite place.

Hit, they can't do that. It closes ROBLOX studio mode when you teleport to another place from edit mode!
