Teleport++
Navigating vast Minecraft worlds can be a chore, especially when your base is thousands of blocks away from your latest build. Teleport++ solves that problem elegantly by introducing a complete teleportation system that feels like a natural part of the game. Instead of relying on commands or risky Ender Pearl throws, you can craft dedicated items that let you zip across dimensions, transport entire groups of mobs, and even set temporary escape portals. This mod is a must-have for builders, explorers, and server admins who want to cut down on travel time without breaking immersion.
What Makes Teleport++ Stand Out
Unlike simple /tp commands, Teleport++ gives you physical objects to interact with. You place them, name them, and link them together to form a network. The interface is intuitive: right-click a teleport pad, and a searchable list of all your named destinations appears. Start typing a location name, and the list filters instantly. This makes managing dozens of teleport points across multiple dimensions effortless. The mod is designed for Forge and works smoothly on Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, with dedicated server support baked in.
The Core Items
Teleport++ adds three distinct items, each serving a unique purpose. All of them can be crafted in survival mode, so you earn your fast travel privileges.
- Teleport – The basic building block. Place it on the ground, give it a unique name, and it becomes a node in your network. Right-click any Teleport to open the destination menu and jump to another pad instantly. You can harvest it with a diamond pickaxe if you need to relocate.
- Area Teleport – An upgraded version that teleports every living entity within a 9x9 area. This includes animals, hostile mobs, and other players. Craft it by surrounding a standard Teleport with four redstone torches in a crafting grid, or upgrade an existing pad in the world by placing the torches in a 9x9 square around it. The torches are consumed, and the pad gains a visible particle effect to show its enhanced range.
- Personal Teleporter – A handheld, multi-use item that creates a temporary portal when used on the ground. The portal lasts 90 seconds, and during that time you can activate the item again to return to your original spot. It also works as a group transporter: hold right-click for two seconds until it glows, and any entity within a 9x9x9 area will be teleported with you. This is perfect for moving livestock, trapping mobs, or even catching fish in a bucket.
How to Install Teleport++ for Minecraft
Getting started with Teleport++ is straightforward. First, make sure you have the correct version of Forge installed for Minecraft 1.19.2 or 1.20.1. Then, download Teleport++ from the official mod repository. Place the downloaded .jar file into your Minecraft mods folder. If you are playing on a server, the mod must be installed on both the client and the server side. After launching the game, you can craft the items using standard recipes. For those who prefer a hassle-free setup, the foxygame.net launcher includes Teleport++ in its curated add-on catalog, allowing you to install it with a single click and keep it updated automatically alongside your other mods.
Crafting Recipes and Upgrades
The basic Teleport requires a few simple resources, making it accessible early in the game. The Area Teleport upgrade is even more convenient because you can perform it directly in the world without a crafting table. Just place four redstone torches around an existing Teleport pad, and the transformation happens instantly. This in-world upgrade mechanic encourages you to build your network organically as you explore. The Personal Teleporter recipe is slightly more advanced, rewarding players who have gathered rare materials.
Advanced Features: Travel Costs and Configuration
Teleport++ isn't just about free instant travel. The mod includes a robust cost system that server admins can enable to balance gameplay. You can set a price for each teleport use, choosing from several cost types: items, health points, XP levels, or XP points. Any item from vanilla Minecraft or other mods can serve as currency—just specify the correct item name in the config file. A clever trick is to set the cost type to "ITEM" and the cost to 0, which requires the player to carry a specific item (like a key) without consuming it.
Costs can be constant, such as one emerald per jump, or distance-based, like one gold ingot per 10 chunks traveled. You can also cap the maximum cost to prevent excessive fees on long journeys. Health costs are safe: a player will never be killed by a teleport; if they lack sufficient HP, their health drops to half a heart instead. All costs are ignored in creative mode, so builders can test networks freely. The configuration file is located in <world_directory>/serverconfig/teleportmod-server.toml, and it is recommended to reconnect to the server after making changes.
Server and Multiplayer Tips
When using Area Teleports with other players or mobs, always ensure there is enough clear space around the destination pad. Otherwise, some entities might end up in walls or unexpected places. The destination menu only shows teleports within your current dimension, so you can maintain separate networks for the Overworld, Nether, and End without clutter. This dimensional separation is a thoughtful touch that keeps the interface clean.
Creative Uses for the Personal Teleporter
The Personal Teleporter is the most versatile tool in the mod. Set a safe point before entering a dangerous cave or underwater monument, and you can instantly retreat if things go wrong. Use it to herd animals into pens without building complex water streams. Lure hostile mobs into a trap and teleport them directly into a killing chamber. You can even scoop up fish by activating the area teleport near a body of water. The 90-second portal window adds a strategic element, forcing you to plan your return trip carefully.
