PixelRtpPool
Random teleportation has long been a staple of multiplayer Minecraft, but typing commands can feel clunky and break immersion. PixelRtpPool reimagines the experience by turning RTP into a physical action: players step into a pool, a countdown begins, and they are whisked away to a random location. This add-on for Paper servers acts as a high-performance bridge between WorldGuard regions and your existing RTP plugin, delivering a polished, lag-free mechanic that keeps players engaged.
Why Choose PixelRtpPool for Minecraft
Traditional RTP plugins rely on chat commands or signs, which work but lack the visual flair that modern servers demand. PixelRtpPool for Minecraft introduces configurable WorldGuard regions that function as immersive teleportation pools. When a player enters the region, a customizable countdown starts, complete with action bar messages, titles, sounds, and particle effects. If they leave the pool before the countdown finishes, the teleport cancels automatically. This simple yet powerful concept transforms a utility feature into a memorable part of your server's world.
Core Features That Set It Apart
PixelRtpPool is packed with thoughtful design choices that make it stand out from other region-based teleport solutions. Here is what you can expect when you download PixelRtpPool and integrate it into your server.
Immersive RTP Pools via WorldGuard
Define any number of RTP pools using standard WorldGuard regions. Each pool can have its own cooldown, countdown duration, and visual effects. Players simply walk or jump in to start the process, no commands needed. This makes PixelRtpPool an intuitive addition to spawn areas, adventure hubs, or minigame lobbies.
High-Performance SessionHandler Integration
Unlike plugins that constantly scan PlayerMoveEvent, PixelRtpPool taps directly into WorldGuard's native SessionHandler API. This approach drastically reduces CPU overhead because the server only reacts when a player actually enters or leaves a defined region. The result is a lightweight add-on that scales effortlessly on busy Paper servers running Minecraft 1.21.1 or newer.
Flexible Teleport Execution
PixelRtpPool does not replace your existing RTP plugin. Instead, it acts as a configurable bridge, executing any teleport command you specify. You can choose between PLAYER and CONSOLE execution modes, making it compatible with popular tools like BetterRTP, SimpleRTP, and even custom scripts. This provider-based architecture means you keep your current random teleport logic while adding the pool mechanic on top.
Rich Customization and Feedback
Every aspect of the player experience is tweakable. Adjust countdown lengths, set per-pool cooldowns, and design messages using MiniMessage formatting. The add-on supports ActionBars, Titles, and particle effects to give clear visual and auditory feedback. PlaceholderAPI integration lets you display dynamic information like remaining cooldown time in other plugins or scoreboards.
How to Install PixelRtpPool on Your Server
Getting started with PixelRtpPool is straightforward, but there are a few prerequisites. First, ensure your server runs Paper 1.21.1 or higher with Java 21. You also need WorldGuard 7+ installed and configured. Once those are in place, simply download PixelRtpPool from its official distribution page and drop the JAR file into your server's plugins folder. Restart the server, and the plugin will generate a default configuration file. If you use the foxygame.net launcher, you can find PixelRtpPool in the add-on catalog and install it with a single click, which automatically handles version compatibility and keeps the plugin up to date. After installation, define a WorldGuard region for your RTP pool, set the teleport command in the config, and assign the pixelrtppool.use permission to your players. That is all it takes to activate the pools.
Performance That Respects Your Server Resources
One of the biggest concerns with region-based mechanics is TPS impact. PixelRtpPool was built from the ground up to avoid common pitfalls. By leveraging WorldGuard's SessionHandler, it never runs continuous movement checks. Instead, it only processes events when a player actually crosses a region boundary. UUID-based caching and careful task scheduling further minimize memory usage. On a production server with dozens of players, the overhead remains negligible, making PixelRtpPool a safe choice even for large networks.
Compatibility and Optional Integrations
PixelRtpPool is designed for Paper 1.21.1+ and requires WorldGuard 7+. It works seamlessly with most RTP plugins, including BetterRTP and SimpleRTP, without hardcoded dependencies. Optional integrations with PlaceholderAPI and CombatLogX add extra layers of functionality. For example, you can prevent teleportation during combat using a provider-based architecture that checks player status before executing the command. This flexibility ensures the add-on fits into almost any server setup.
Commands and Permissions at a Glance
Administrators have access to two simple commands: /rtppool reload to refresh the configuration and /rtppool info to view pool status. Permissions are equally minimal: pixelrtppool.use allows players to interact with pools, while pixelrtppool.admin grants access to reload and info commands. This clean separation keeps management hassle-free.
Open Source and Community Driven
PixelRtpPool is released under the MIT License, with its full source code available on GitHub. The developer welcomes feedback, bug reports, and feature requests, ensuring the add-on evolves with the community's needs. Whether you run a small survival server or a large minigame network, PixelRtpPool offers a fresh, performance-friendly way to handle random teleportation.
