Spawn

/spawn takes you to the server spawn. If you own a claimed area, it takes you to your area spawn instead. See Claims.

Homes

CommandWhat it does
/sethome [name]Saves a home where you're standing. Without a name it's called home. Using an existing name moves that home.
/home [name]Teleports you to a home
/homesLists your homes
/delhome [name]Deletes a home
/renamehome <old> <new>Renames a home
  • You can have 3 homes by default. When you reach the limit you'll see Home limit reached (3); ask staff about your group.
  • Home names are 1–32 letters, numbers, _ or -, and aren't case-sensitive.
  • Asking for a home that doesn't exist shows Home not found.

Warps

Warps are named spots set by staff.

CommandWhat it does
/warpsLists the warps
/warp <name>Teleports you to a warp

Staff create and remove warps with /setwarp and /delwarp.

Teleport requests

CommandWhat it does
/tpa <player>Asks to teleport to another player
/tpahere <player>Asks another player to teleport to you
/tpacceptAccepts the request you received
/tpdenyDeclines it
/tpauto [on|off]Accepts requests to you automatically. Without on or off it switches.
  • Both players must be online. You can't send a request to yourself.
  • A request expires after 30 seconds. A player can only have one request waiting at a time.
  • After a request is accepted, the player who's moving waits 3 seconds. Moving cancels the teleport.
  • /tpauto is reset when the server restarts.

Back and random teleport

CommandWhat it does
/backReturns you to where you were before your last teleport
/rtpShows a warning first. Nothing happens until you confirm.
/rtp confirmTeleports you to a random spot in the overworld. Only works within 30 seconds of /rtp.
/rtp cancelCancels a random teleport you haven't confirmed
  • /back only remembers your last teleport, not where you died, and it's forgotten when the server restarts.
  • /rtp is free and only works in the overworld. Typing it shows: Random teleport: this may place you somewhere unsafe (water, caves, cliffs, mobs). Type /rtp confirm within 30 seconds to continue, or /rtp cancel.
  • Random teleport can put you somewhere unsafe. It picks a spot 500 to 5,000 blocks from spawn, inside the world border, in land that has already been generated. It tries to find solid ground away from water, lava, magma and cactus, but if it can't, it still sends you to one of the spots it checked. Be ready for water, caves, cliffs or mobs.
  • After /rtp confirm you'll see Finding a random location... and then Teleported. If nothing was found you'll see No random teleport location was found; try again later.
  • The confirmation lasts 30 seconds and is used up by one teleport. Confirming after it runs out, after /rtp cancel, or without typing /rtp first shows No pending random teleport; type /rtp first. Logging out also clears it.
  • /back takes you back to where you were before the random teleport.

Cooldown

After a successful teleport you have to wait 5 seconds before the next one. /home, /warp, /back, /rtp, accepted requests, /spawn and area spawns (/c spawn) all share this cooldown.

Combat tag

Being hurt by a player, a mob or a projectile, or hitting a player or mob in melee, puts you in combat for 30 seconds. Each new hit restarts the 30 seconds.

While you're in combat:

  • Teleports with /home, /warp, /back, /rtp, /spawn and area spawns (/c spawn, /c home) are blocked with Teleport is blocked during combat.
  • You can't send or receive teleport requests.
  • A teleport that's counting down is cancelled.

Wait 30 seconds without fighting and you can teleport again.
