Lodestone Teleportation
by AvatarKage
Lodestone Teleportation lets a compass point at a lodestone placed in an item frame, creating a fixed teleportation point that players can travel to.
What it does
Holding a compass that points at a lodestone set in an item frame lets a player teleport to that location. The compass can be overwritten to choose a different fixed destination. Entities can also travel over the lodestone, so the player does not need to hold the compass for the teleport to happen.
The mod is a simple quality-of-life addition delivered as a datapack for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Teleports work across dimensions and behave like a portal, with extra items and advanced configuration available for shifting between points. The server needs the mod; players can join without it. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions, and the code is not open source.
Key features
Compass-based teleport
A compass locked to a lodestone in an item frame serves as a teleport point that can be used from anywhere in its range.
Fixed teleportation points
Placing a lodestone in an item frame face creates a fixed point that stays in place until a new compass overwrites it.
Cross-dimension travel
Teleports work between dimensions, so a fixed point in one world can be reached from another.
Entity travel
Entities can travel over a lodestone without any compass held in hand.

What the author says
A simple quality of life datapack that teleports you to the location of the held compass when standing over a lodestone for 2 seconds. No shifting, no swapping extra items, no advanced configurations, just a plug-and-play portal-like mechanic that works cross-dimension. You can also add a compass on the lodestone…
