Warps & Visiting

Warps let an island set named teleport points, optionally publish them for the whole server to browse, and let other players come visit. It is how islands show off and how your community discovers each other.

Your own warps

CommandWhat it does
/is warpsBrowse your island's warps
/is setwarp <name>Set a warp where you stand
/is warp <name>Teleport to one of your warps
/is delwarp <name>Delete a warp
/is warpcategory <name> [category]Set or clear a warp's category
/is warpicon <name> [material]Set or clear a warp's display icon

Each warp can carry its own display icon. /is warpicon home DIAMOND_BLOCK makes that warp show a diamond block in both your warp menu and the public browser; run it again with no material to reset to the default lodestone.

Public warps

Publish a warp and it appears in the server wide browser, so anyone can find and visit it. Categories help players filter a long list, and the browser paginates automatically once there are more published warps than fit on one screen. To make every new warp public automatically, set island.public-warps-default: true in config.yml (players can still unpublish individually).

CommandWhat it does
/is warppublic <name>Publish or unpublish a warp
/is publicwarpsBrowse public warps from every island (paginated)

Visiting other islands

CommandWhat it does
/is visit <player>Visit a player's island
/is lockToggle whether visitors may come to yours
/is visitorsSee who has visited your island
/is expel [player]Expel one visitor, or all of them
/is previewWatch a cinematic orbit of your own island

A visitor's permissions are decided by your visitor role (by default just interact and teleport away), so people can look without touching. Lock your island to close it off entirely.

Visiting works across a network

On a sharded setup, /is visit will send the visitor to whichever backend hosts that island, seamlessly. See Proxy Sharding.

The cinematic preview

/is preview flies a spectator camera in a slow orbit around your island, a quick way to show it off or to admire a finished build. Its radius, height, speed and duration are all configurable:

config.yml
preview:
  radius: 25.0
  height: 18.0
  speed-degrees: 2.0
  ticks-per-move: 1
  duration-seconds: 20
