PearlHome: Instant Home Teleport with Ender Pearls

PearlHome

PearlHome is a clever Minecraft mod that restores a beloved old mechanic: using an ender pearl to instantly teleport back to your bed or the world spawn point. Instead of walking or riding thousands of blocks, you simply toss an ender pearl at the ground and you are whisked away. It is a server-side mod, meaning only the server needs to have it installed for the core functionality to work, making it perfect for multiplayer servers and modpacks.

What Does PearlHome Do?

At its heart, PearlHome gives every player a reliable escape route. Throw an ender pearl straight down while standing on solid ground, and you will be teleported to your personal spawn point—usually the last bed you slept in. If you have not set a bed, or if your bed is missing or obstructed, the mod sends you to the world spawn instead. This simple action can save you from long, dangerous journeys back home after exploring or mining.

The mod was inspired by an old feature from the SK 89q server community and has been rebuilt for modern Minecraft versions. It works seamlessly on Fabric servers and supports a range of recent game versions, including 1.20.1, 1.19.4, 1.18.2, and others. Because the core teleport logic runs server-side, vanilla clients can join and use the feature without installing anything extra. However, if the client also has PearlHome installed, additional quality-of-life features become available, such as localized action bar messages.

Key Features and Configuration

PearlHome is not just a one-trick mod. It comes with a flexible configuration file that lets server admins fine-tune exactly when and how the teleport works. You can restrict teleportation to specific conditions, adding a layer of balance and challenge to your server.

• Ground requirement: Prevent teleporting while the player is in the air, falling, or swimming.
• Hazard blocks: Disallow teleportation if the player is standing in lava, water, or on fire.
• Sneak to activate: Require the player to be sneaking (crouching) when throwing the pearl, making accidental teleports impossible.
• Force spawn teleport: Allow players to teleport directly to the world spawn instead of their bed by sneaking while throwing the pearl.

These settings are easily adjusted in the mod's config file, giving server owners full control over how PearlHome behaves in their world. Whether you want a convenient travel tool or a carefully balanced survival mechanic, the mod adapts to your needs.

Bonus: Ender Chest Access Anywhere

One of the most popular extra features in PearlHome is the portable ender chest. When enabled in the configuration, any player can open their personal ender chest by sneak-right-clicking with an Eye of Ender in hand. This turns the Eye of Ender into a magical key, granting instant access to stored items no matter where you are. It is a huge convenience for builders, explorers, and anyone who wants to keep their valuables safe without running back to base. Note that this feature requires the mod to be installed on both the server and the client to function properly.

Localization and Client-Side Perks

PearlHome respects your language settings. If the client has the appropriate language files installed and the server configuration allows it, all action bar messages—such as teleport confirmations or error warnings—will appear in the client's selected language. This small touch makes the mod feel native and welcoming for players around the world. The mod community actively encourages translation contributions, so you might even help bring PearlHome to your own language.

How to Install PearlHome

Installing PearlHome is straightforward, especially if you are familiar with Fabric mods. Follow these steps to get started:

1. Make sure you have a Fabric server running a compatible Minecraft version (1.20.1, 1.19.4, 1.18.2, or similar).
2. Download the PearlHome mod file from a trusted mod repository. The file is a standard .jar Fabric mod.
3. Place the downloaded .jar file into your server's mods folder.
4. Restart the server. The mod will generate a default configuration file in the config folder.
5. Optionally, edit the configuration to adjust teleport conditions or enable the ender chest feature.
6. If you want clients to see localized messages or use the ender chest bonus, have each player install the same mod in their client's mods folder.

For those who prefer a more streamlined experience, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click installation for PearlHome. Simply browse the launcher's add-on catalog, find PearlHome, and the launcher handles version compatibility and automatic updates, so you can focus on playing rather than managing files.

Why Choose PearlHome?

PearlHome stands out because it is lightweight, server-friendly, and highly configurable. It does not bloat your game with unnecessary items or complex mechanics. Instead, it enhances the vanilla experience by giving ender pearls a meaningful new use. Server admins love that it works out of the box with no client-side requirements, while players appreciate the convenience of a quick teleport home after a long adventure.

The mod is also completely free to use and can be included in any modpack or public server without permission. Its open nature and active community support make it a reliable choice for both small private servers and large networks.
