Transpace Jumpdrive Beacons are a pair of usable items that will appear in your cargo hold shortly after you install a jumpdrive.
They can be deployed into space, or kept as an item in your hold.
You can jump to a deployed beacon by using the other as an item (thus bringing it along for the ride), or by deploying, docking, & jumping (leaving yourself a way back).
Beacons can be used within a system, or between systems. Jumping from one system to another causes a double-jump: first to a gate in the destination system, then to the beacon itself.
Deployed beacons can be retrieved by docking with them.
See the readme.txt file for more info, and for configurable options.
Mod inspired by Apemant's "Portable Stargates".
This is my first mod; I hope that you will enjoy it! Comments and bug reports are welcome!

cool, well thought out and not hugely overpowered, since you have to gate to the inbound gate first
