Server Utilities — Gameplay Guide
1. Mod Overview
Server Utilities is a server‑enhancement mod that provides three main features: a login/registration system, a teleport request (TPA) system, and admin inventory viewing. It adds no new items or blocks.
2. Features and Commands
2.1 Login / Registration System
The first time you join the server, you must register a password with /register. On every subsequent join, use /login to log in. While unauthenticated, you cannot move, chat, or use any commands (except for login/registration related commands).
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/register <password> <confirm> or /reg ... |
Register a new account |
/login <password> or /l <password> |
Log in to an existing account |
/logout |
Log out (deletes your account data; you will need to re‑register on next join) |
- Passwords must be at least 4 characters long.
- Login timeout is 120 seconds by default; you will be kicked if you exceed it.
- After successful login/registration, your position, inventory, and equipment are automatically restored.
2.2 Teleport Request System (TPA)
Send a teleport request to another player; the teleport occurs once the recipient accepts.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/tpa <player> |
Request to teleport to that player (you must stand still for 5 seconds) |
/tpahere <player> |
Request that player to teleport to you (they must stand still for 5 seconds) |
/tpaccept |
Accept the current teleport request |
/tpdeny |
Deny the current teleport request |
/tpalock |
Toggle teleport lock on/off; when locked, you will not receive any incoming requests |
- Only the requester spends experience, with the cost depending on distance.
- Cross‑dimension teleports cost extra experience.
- The player being teleported must stand still for 5 seconds (countdown shown on the boss bar); moving interrupts and resets the timer.
- Requests expire after 30 seconds if not handled.
2.3 Admin Inventory Viewing (requires OP permission)
Admins can view and modify other players' inventories or ender chests, supporting both online and offline players.
| Command | Permission Level | Description |
|---|---|---|
/invsee <player> |
2 | View/edit the specified player's inventory (including armour and offhand) |
/endersee <player> |
2 | View/edit the specified player's ender chest |
- Offline player data is read from the server's save files and is automatically saved when the GUI is closed.
- Changes to online players' items take effect instantly.
3. Important Notes
- While logging in/registering, you are placed in a void area at Y=512 and cannot move; complete verification as soon as possible.
- While unauthenticated, other players will not see your join message, and your name will not appear in the Tab list.
- After a TPA request is accepted, the teleporting player must not move, or the countdown will reset.
/tpalockonly blocks incoming requests; it does not prevent you from sending/tpato others.- All text prompts can be customised by the server owner in the configuration file.
