Teleportation is a form of transportation in which the moving object is instantaneously moved to its target location.
Overview
[edit | edit source]Teleportation can occur under numerous circumstances. The target object appears to instantly be at its destination afterward, usually[1] playing a sound in the process (cases, where they do not, are not accidental). It can also refer to entities traveling through portals.
Player teleportation
[edit | edit source]- Throwing an ender pearl.
- Eating a chorus fruit.
- Using the
/teleportcommand. - Passing through a nether portal, end portal, exit portal or end gateway.
- Entering a bed.
- Mounting a horse, mule, donkey, llama, camel, saddled pig or saddled strider.
- Entering a boat or minecart.
- Dying and respawning.
- Quitting and re-logging the game while above the Nether roof.[Bedrock Edition only]
Other mobs
[edit | edit source]Other mobs can teleport via other methods:
- Tamed wolves, cats, and parrots teleport to their owner if not sitting and their owner is far enough away.
- Endermen teleport under numerous circumstances.
- Shulkers are also capable of teleportation.
- As with players, foxes can teleport upon consumption of chorus fruit.
- Other entities can also be teleported using
/teleport. - They can be teleported by passing through a nether portal, end portal, exit portal or end gateway.
Non-entities
[edit | edit source]Dragon eggs can also teleport when clicked on.
Ender chests allow the same set of items to be accessed from multiple locations, effectively teleporting them.
