input position/orientation Fat Wires into Teleporters
As is currently, the teleporter can only teleport to the position and/or rotation of a tag. I've dealt with many situations however where I've wanted a sculpt to teleport to a position set by some math done on two or more other objects, which isn't possible with a teleporter, instead having to use followers and look at rotators. Allowing fat wire input to teleporters would make it much easier, and less delayed.

Something to bear in mind is that logic values through wires only update at 30fps. So they can still be delayed by a frame even with this.
-
I think it's okay as long as it's not delayed by logic, when it is like also the wireless transmission, the information can be wrong and the process complex because you need to sync data from multiple cycles to complete.
-
I'd definitely accept one frame of delay, it's much better than the current alternative. a follower set to the maximum speed with full strength and dampening has a signifigantly more noticable lag than the equivalent teleporter.
-
Pretty sure a maxed follower has just 1 frame of delay also.

@TheGoldNinja10 Not sure if you already know this, but the speed of a Follower is a "scaled tweak". When you scale up the gadget - not the affected object - the speed increases proportionately. There is still an effective hard limit beyond which further scaling up and speed increases have no effect, but it's much higher than the 1000 metres per second that you see in the tweak menu of a Follower at the default logic gadget scale of 0.1. It's about 120000 metres per second or 4000 metres per frame, which is fast enough to travel across a whole scene in 3 frames. So if you're stuck with using a Follower, you can move it off-chip and scale it up until its speed is at least 120000 metres per second. The gadget will be huge, but that'll never matter in play mode, and you can hide it with the hide tool in edit mode.

The problem of the follower is that it never "glue" like the teleporter, not that teleporter is perfect when is moving, but it "stick" better then the follower. My own problem with this is that the teleporter can´t go to where you want through wiring, only the follower.

You can do what you want by using an emitted object at the point calculated, while still using a teleporter
