Top-Bottom has the reasoning, while Front-back hes the numbers. At the moment I'm leaning towards the front-back alignment, but there's still time to change my mind...  


Top-bottom, just because it would look cool..
Think about it, something like a Fenris just shoots straight up out of the thing then levels off.....
How would that not look cool?

If you want straight up entrance, then you want the portal to rotate parallel to the panel on the arcadia, no?
That's front-back

CLARIFICATION: Top-bottom refers to the entry-exit path of ships traversing the portal. Likewise, with front-back.  

Top-bottom would spit out a ship "vertically".

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it.

Which is best
(that is front/back is best)

Why don't you make it roating, so ships have to chance getting minced up by it if there slow?

Because if a ship is slow it might get minced up...

ok, it's quite simple: make two different models. I don't think I'd use the top/bottom one, just sound to srtupid to me, so everybody would be happy with the 2 versions (more people want the front back one, and the others will be happy with their ships jumping to hell)
