HomeGuard
by Der_Benson_
Server owners who want players to return to saved spots can add HomeGuard, a Fabric teleport system with homes, warmups and cooldowns.
What it does
HomeGuard adds a home system in which each player can set several home points across the world, up to 27 of them. Homes are saved per world, so separate saves keep their own sets. The homes are managed through a chest-like interface where bed icons are color coded, and through the commands sethome, home, delhome and renhome.
Teleports use a warmup: a countdown of three seconds by default, which the server can change, during which moving cancels the trip. A cooldown of five seconds, also configurable, separates one teleport from the next. Before a teleport is carried out, the destination is checked for lava, water and other unsafe locations. HomeGuard is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and it needs Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric, for 1.20.1, 1.20.2 and 1.21.1, with 1.1 for 1.21.1 as the latest. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

A chest-style screen lists the saved homes, with color-coded bed icons for quick recognition.
Warmup timer
A configurable countdown runs before each teleport, and moving during it cancels the trip.
Cooldown and safety checks
